Mysterious Bolt Appeared and Frightened Me
Posted: Mon Sep 11, 2017 10:41 pm
Adjusted the valves on my 2005 R1200RT last night. As usual, I put every bolt and fastener in my compartmented tray so I would not misplace any. After the valves were done, I picked up the right rocker cover and saw this inside it.
I do not use the rocker cover as a bolt tray! Where did it come from? I peered inside the head but saw no missing bolts. I put the bike all back together but found no place for this mystery fastener. The bike ran fine on my daily commute. Where could it have come from? I'm worried.
