Hi all, Could somebody with an 1125R on around 2008 25th anniversary build please have a look at this picture and tell me what should be screwed into the threaded hole shown in the centre of the picture with the scratch marks just below and to the right of it. Just noticed it tonight when cleaning the bike. So you can find it more easily, this is on the front of the right hand engine casing, the braided hose running through the bracket above goes to the clutch.
Thank you in advance Hugh.

It's fine. Probably used for holding it down during transport from Rotax. Mine's got witness marks on it too 8-)

Thank you both. It just had a service at Riders in Bridgwater and I wondered if they had taken something off and not replaced it.
After all, they drained the oil out and failed to replace all of that. 0.45 litres so far to get it between the marks on a hot test.

Beginning to lose faith.............. :headbang:
Can anyone recommend a dealer near to me who can look after a bike properly, and not risk mine and other lives.

Hugh - same thing happened to me (2010 CR). I've now topped up almost 600 ml and still can't see it between the markers on the cold check. It's at the lower end when i perform the hot check. My mechanic wasn't aware that it was a 2010 model which requires more oil :shock: Just hope the motor is OK as it's only done 500 kms!

I too found a few unused threaded holes when inspecting my bike after service but have checked the manual and looks like there's nothing meant to be screwed in those holes.
