I dropped a screw...

A second pair of eyes will do you wonders...

Try that bundle of money you get when you save by switching to Geico It's got big eyes.......

But seriously, if it's not wedged into a moving part (a condition that you've checked carefully for) ride it

I've ridden many with a rogue screw somewhere on it.  Never had a problem.  Do check very carefully around things that move.  It'll bounce or vibrate out somewhere down the road.

if its not in the chain, or in the front sprocket somewhere......and you didnt have the airbox open.....then ride it.

BTW, i always find my missing screws on the little lip on the lower triple. doesnt matter if i was working on the taillight.
thats where they end up.

on the other hand, the 10mm wrench that i left back there one time ended up stuck between the ex box and the case...proving that i have better luck than IZ

may I suggest looking in those places that it could be detrimental, this may make you feel better about saying make the beast with two backs it

Eh,

I'm pretty sure I got some lost screws in there.


And some washers.



Probably at least one socket.



It just adds to the dry clutch rattle.

Is there a back story here worth telling?


Leave the screw where it is and forget about it.  You'll find it sometime, and an unexpected screw is always good.     

[DaniD]

Not really...she has an R1 and sometimes they fall out of the storage space...I don't even think the little box under my seat could fit one!!

r1's make a better douchebag holder than a tampon dispenser
