ok, nevermind, i need more than just that bolt, so i ordered an entire clutch perch with lever off ebay....heres how this all began

riding home saturday night, my clutch started slipping, well i decide to go ahead and tear into it to try adjusting the clutch before ordering new ones, well i found that when i pulled in the lever, it wasnt releasing all the way, so it was like i was riding with the lever pulled in a little, so i figure out its just my lever itself sticking, i could loosen up the bolt and it worked fine, but as soon as i snug it up any, it sticks again....so the only thing i figure it could possibly be is that the bushing(collar) inside the lever is worn down(the one that prevents over tightening of the bolt) so i just leave it a little lose, and put another 10mm nut on and tighten them up on each other...well i ended up stripping the threads off the bolt,so i just said screw it and ordered the whole damn thing off ebay...

after re reading this post, i dont even know if it makes sense to anybody
