little lost washer that dropped inside the case.

I wonder how probing with a magnet would work ? Huh

Probably find everything made of metal down there ! Grin

Hay , just leave it in there - REX needs to eat something once in a while ... Wink

or

Just turn it upside down and let it fall out ?

The offer is always out there for ya !

magnet requires luck and persistence to get past the things that are magnetic.

I would try putting the engine on the side and pumping oil thru to flush it out.

but I think, once it's on the bottom not much is going to get it off other than an evil Knievel jump.

I’ve got it leaning in a large pan and flushing with gas which evaporated quickly for a look-see. Will try oil too.

Well, let’s see.
Had an oil leak so removed the engine to fix that, and to swap the piston as long as it was apart. When reassembling I had a right side cover bolt cross thread, so I pull the cover to address this issue and during that the washer on the bolt just slips right off and goes “tink tink” and disappears down an open hole. It has not been seen since. 😕

Wonder if it just faked me out and split when my attention was diverted ? I’m about ready to put it back together and go with it.

Next Monday is my day to take the Bike for a "THREE DAY RIDE" .

So , Dave

If I leave my house at 9am , I would be in the Dragon neighborhood about 13:00-13:30 hrs.
I can bring the 8'x10'x6' tent , I'll set it up this week to make sure its still alright. I'll give it another spray of camp-dry while I've got it up.

How does your plan look ?
