Dont have that, though you'd think I would. Howevere a buddha brace comes with all bolts you need in SS to fit said brace onto your bike.
Cool.

Unscrew one of the other 3, walk into a hardware store, find the metric section (if no metric section, walk out, try another hardware store and patronize the one you find in the future) find a nut that fits the bolt in question, which will tell you what the size/pitch is (since I don't recall it), then find the bolts of that pitch in a length to match the bolt you brought in, and buy one, or buy 4, in stainless, so they all match and don't rust.

Time - less than an hour if you have a hardware store worth the name anywhere close.

Cost - might be $5-10 (for 4 of them) depending how much they overcharge for metric stainless. Could be $4 or less. Under a buck for one in non-stainless.

Check first that the hole is not stripped, or full of broken off, rusted-in-place old bolt.

Bwaaaaaaa ... haaaaaaa haaaaaaaa ... very funny.
Its sitting in a box in my garage. So I'd guess closer to 3-4 years. Its 1-2 years only if I have it packed to go in my car ...
Cool.
