Hi All, changed the battery yesterday but carelessly dropped Torx driver through the bottom of the battery box. Not sure how far it fell but certainly out of view. Anyone any idea what I should remove with a view to retrieving it?
 
How about starting with taking out the battery and battery box? You could then fish about with a telescopic magnet.
 
Cliff - welcome to UKGSer (wrong bike but there you go!)

I have a K1300GT - I would recommend starting by removing the side panels of the fairing - lots of (differently sized!) screws.

Lots of nooks & crannies for it to fall into, sadly.

Whilst you are poking around, try to examine the rear of the radiator, especially at the base - road debris/mud can build up and block the rad, especially in Cumbria!

Not sure if this page is visible but helps - https://eurokclub.bike/index.php?topic=1405.0
