Magnet for oil drain plug...missing...?

[skydivr]

Yep, pulled it out tonight to change the oil in my Gixxer 1k...was there when I put it in last oil change...now just a hole...didn't come out with the oil..uh oh...

Now what?

If you stuck it to the header or somewhere else handy during the last change check there. It might have pulled off when you went to put the plug back in.

Otherwise it'll get stopped by the pickup screen and probably stuck there.

I don't know what to say, but that sucks. I'm sorry, man.

Have you already installed the new exhaust? If not, that would be a good opportunity to drop the oil pan and have a look around.

Yup, the screen will likely stop it, BUT droppin the pan deff couldnt hurt. Oh, Oh, make Charlie help too

I have NO desire to take the oil pan off....gonna leave it there and hope for the best...

I give great advice, but I'd likely call it good too.

You've got all day. Haul that dog down to the BMW dealer and trade it in on a 1000RR.

Easy to justify to the missus!

we can pull the pan when i help you aim your headlight...

 

[skydivr]

Headlight on busa, yes
pan on gixxer, no. Never on race day
