If it's the engine one(underside) keep in mind that the bolt goes through an oil feed directly to the oil pump. You do not want any shavings getting into the pump.
Yea engine drain. Not much i can do, if i was going to split cases id be putting a new crank in while im in there anyway. So if this doesnt work full motor build. Well see what happens i have some faith honestly.

Rode bike at field of dreams yesterday in new jersey. Had a good time, left early due to crashing on a double. Isnt too bad just sore. Bike ran flawlessly, suspension felt great. I really love the HRC pegs if you think the raptors are sharp these are a different level, your feet are glued to the pegs and gives great control. Was my first time actually riding dirt and being on a motocross track, i usually ride sand pits and sandy trails so hard to compare it to previous bikes i owned but i felt great. Ill be back next week most likely.

I really just didnt take the turn properly like i had beed on the outside rut, tried to correct it back to the left as i came out towards the right, over corrected and went off the jump sideways a tad. Nothing too bad live and learn

Didn't realize you rode there. Its the closest track to me but I prefer to ride elsewhere unless I just need to get in and out quickly. I'll look for you this year though.

Where do you prefer to ride and why other places over FOD? Just curious

Tomahawk would be my favorite for sure. I also go to dutchman and budds. Budds never gives me that fun flowy feeling but its something different and Dutchman is where you go to work on tight rutted corners. I guess Ive ridden FOD so much im just kinda bored a few laps in and their management and decision making leaves a lot to be desired..
