Case plug under right side Crank bearing

TAlber8 · Jul 29, 2020

What is this plug that was under the right side crank bearing, on the bottom near the sump?

Cases were powder coated and I think it was probably a plug to block off the hole left in?

Are these left open normally?

Mine looks like that too. Probably a blocked oil feed passage for the Rt main bearing.

Did you pull a plug out of there? I'm curious to. Hope someone who knows more will answer.
What year bike?I
Edit-Just looked mine is open. That close up pic makes it look much bigger.

Why would an oil feed be blocked? Is it open on your bike?

I’m pretty sure that plug was from the PC, it seems like it’s silicone, think that passage has pin on other end to locate the bearing.

i hope lol
