Just discovered something new.

While underneath the bike changing the FD output bearing which collapsed after 15yrs service, I noticed this plastic plug.
What is it for as there is liquid inside?

Is it water collected in the air box maybe?

It's the drain plug for the airbox. Usually if anything comes out of it, it'll be oil blown through from the engine.

Thanks Matt,
I’ll drain it and see what I have collected over 15yrs of use.

Get to f@u£, I am alive and kicking. There was no deluge on opening the plug, just a dozen drips.
Looked like phlegm from a heavy smoker.
