I just picked up an 05 CRF50 for my son, who is turning 6 in a couple of weeks. The owner had a set of training wheels, which I think we OEM Honda parts. However, he had misplaced the 2 bolts that bolt it to the frame.
Anybody know what size bolts those are?? I did some Google searching but have come up dry so far.

Where specifically do they bolt to the frame? Generally, there are two types of aftermarket training wheel mount setups: one style bolts under the footpegs, using the footpeg mounting holes, and the other style bolts to the rear wheel/axle area.

The are under the foot peg area, but don't use the foot peg holes themselves. The owner and I looked under there to see if the bolts were there (he thought they were) and there were two holes. I would take a pic and show you but I have the bike in storage down the road...gotta keep it hidden until my sons birthday later this month.

Don't do training wheels man they teach kid how to ride a quad not a bike. They are not worth the time it takes to unlearn all the quad habits

I determined that 8M x 20 bolts would work, with 1.25 threads, in case anybody else runs into this situation.

I would guess that the training wheels did bolt up to the footpeg mounting holes(?) The only holes on the bottom of the engine cases that uses 8 x 20 bolts are for the footpeg mount.

On my bike there are two holes just ahead of where the foot pegs are bolted to the bike. The training wheels bolt up to those two holes.

Like to see some pics of that setup, if you don't mind. Never knew Honda to have any extra holes in the bottom of the cases for training wheels.

I'll probably go back to the storage place later today when it cools off some, and I'll see if I can get some pics.

Thank you for snapping the pic, those are the front footpeg mount holes you used to bolt the training wheels in place.

Oh, I see. I don't remember the footpeg mounts extending over those holes, but I wasn't really paying that much attention to that at the time since it was 4,000 degrees outside while I was working on it.
