Everyone
Just got my dash mount today and went to install it. Removed the first dash bolt no problem, went to remove the second could not get a hold of it and when i did the darn thing squirted out and into the windshield arm. That is what i suspect anyway as I could not find it on the floor. I am afraid to start the bike up and maybe rattle it loose. I have yet to take the tupperware off for my first oil change etc. Any ideas? Thanks Guys

Many of us have lost bolts. If it's small move on it will either fall out or wedge. Not much it can hurt

It may shake out one day when you least expect it. Or it may never come out. At least its still part of the bike. I've loss 3 or 4 that disappeared into the dark obiss. Never to be seen again. No worries. Happy Trails

Magnet

Been there... Use a magnet. I use a telescoping magnet. Stick in hole and move it around a hopefully you will get lucky. I also use a camera probe sometimes. You can get them at harbor freight or walmart.

Welcome to the world of lost bolts/screws. We are a very large fraternity. (Not to worry)

Don't worry, I've got extras...

I always seem to have a bolt or two "left over" when I put my Spyder back together. So, if you ever need a bolt I'm sure I've got one that'll fit, haha.

Worry less and it's not like a airplane that will cause not safe for flight item. Just ensure it will not jam on your steering system. Happy riding.
