Maybe, the hex head may not fit down into the cut-outs in the alternator housing .....
But, test it and see. You could drop any short M6 bolt in there just to check the fit. Maybe an Allen would be a better sub?

I found another option.
I think it will fit. I like the Bolt Depot option.
You will have lots left over to send to your friends on XS650.com
Just one more little thing - your outside brush wire is wrapped around the wrong side of the bracket, it should go to the outside. The one in my pic is wrong as well, going over the top. I've since fixed it.
Thank you! I need to keep that in mind. This was a quick temporary install.
It looks like there’s plenty of room for a socket head in there. Thanks!
I replaced mine with hex heads, plenty of room. Common item, just got them at a hardware store.
P.S. the hex head size is related to the bolt diameter, not the length, so the hex was just 10mm if I remember right. Plenty of anti-seize on the end and make sure the cover is really down all the way in the right place, since it's finicky. there's a notch involved i think

Hey Marty gotta ask; how much of the bolt shank was plain vs. threaded?
Great, might have to order some of those!
I appreciate you pulling those up for me. They're perfect.
