    What is the part number for the bolts that attach the OEM backrest?

    Probably stainless steel, button head cap screw, metric (check diameter and length in mm) and look it up on eBay.

    What oil to use, that is the question

    Amsoil in all my bikes and cars and trucks and tractors for years never an issue at all.

    Preferred oil type

    I had posted before, Amsoil in everything. #1. I believe $25.00 a year for a preferred member and you get a discount.

    Vmax MPG improvement

    I get 40 MPG with my 05 with wife and I on it all the time. Roughly 350 pounds of crap on the seat but I only cruz through the back county roads for enjoyment.
