And I got a problem....
October when I took my bike in for tires to Foothills the service writer noted there was oil on the oil pan. So today I checked over the bike before the ride. Air pressure was 4 lbs low in the front, 2 lbs in the rear.
I checked the oil, and it looked a bit high. The oil pan had a coating of oil and dust... I started tracking it to the, hopeful, source. So I pulled the body panels and it appears to be coming from the rider's left side. There is a missing bolt, to the left of the starter, near where, I believe, the clutch is. See picture....

The position of the radiator overflow tank is on this side, and I noted it is low. (Worrying...)
I went through the shop manual and am not sure what the bolt is. I need to know that.
I need to drain the oil to figure out if I just added too much oil, and it would need to be done if I go to remove the oil pan, and above to check the gasket.
Any ideas about the bolt?
Martin, do you have Venmo? Or just donate online? I am not making the ride... (insert me grumbling here)

If so, and you have a rough idea when you guys might show up, I may just meet up at one of the stops. If you were thinking of doing 93 to 119 (or 36), I would imagine you would arrive in Carter Lake around 11:30am -- just wasn't sure if a stop was planned for a meet up point.

I'd like to leave as close to 10:00 as possible. The route we are taking is roughly 1 1/2 - 2 hours which should put us at Vern's right at lunchtime.Right now the weather forecast is great: Sunny and a high of 69. But of course, we all live in Colorado, so check back periodically for updates.Hope to see you all there!Martin----
