Looking for something that does not exist again!

So today in preparation for fitting the engine case into the frame next week I looked for the bolts that hold the engine into place at the frame bottom.
I found two nice long shafts - one fitted nicely into the lower rear of the frame but the other was too large a diameter.

I am now fixated on looking for a thinner long bolt - I find one but it is too short. After checking my parts boxes contents list I failed to find the item listed anywhere.
I now check every box on my shelves A-Q to no avail - check them all again more thoroughly a couple of hours later - ziltch.

Look in the parts book - yep it ain't a long bolt like the I was expecting but two M10 x 80 bolts that I have .......durrrrr.

One long bolt at the back, dont forget to remove paint/coating from either side of rear lh plate where bolt goes and one long stud underneath with a footrest on each end Ted

clinto:
Nice to know that there are others like me having Senior moments.
I'm finding that I sometimes spend more time looking for part than it does to fit it!
Apologies if your  a youngun.

I'm still a youngster at 75 - as you age the definition of young & old move with you as a reference point.

Spent ages trying to find my crankshaft the other day all the time thinking it was impossible to lose such a thing. Found it 15 min later camouflaged inside a pajama leg behind a box I’d used to protect it……. Thank goodness for parts list diagrams to protect us from our memories ( 65 years young )
