Default Chrome Timing Cover Bolts

Im looking to find some chrome timing cover bolts. i know harley sells a set but with mixed reviews. Im curious about these screws size and a place to buy them. Im also curious in general where to find actual screw specs to replace others on the bike, instead of relying on harley to have them. I have a 2016 road king.

Thanks guys

Look around Alloy Bolts website. I every visible fastener on both my bikes with these SS 12 point heads. A bit pricey but done over time; every time I had to pull a cover, I replace those POS OEM fasteners with these.

SS hex head 1/4" bolts with 1 1/4" length IIRC.

The timing cover bolts are 8-32. You won't find arp stainless in that size, you'll have to go up to 10-32 if that's what you want. If you don't need 12pt then I'm sure there's tons of polished 8-32 hardware available.
I have used this guy for years.
