I removed my chain guard yesterday to properly remove the rear tire - doing it by the book. As I removed the swingarm brace, the pictured fastener fell to the floor from the area of the front sprocket. I never loosened it and its very different from all the other fasteners on the bike. Phillips head, locking serrations under the head and to top it off its a metric M6 - no lie. Do any of you wrenches out there recognize it as off a Buell or is it just some space debris?. Dave? Brian? bolt
