Re: Dropped Shim
I did this very thing bout four months ago. I managed to get mine to fall out the sump by putting it in neutal leaning the bike right over on the stand and with assistance turned the engine over. If you do block the holes in future make sure you unblock them when you put it back together. i may of forgot one bit and engine go boooom..

Guess what I found!!
It was sitting on on a ledge just by the middle cam gear.
I'm so relieved and happy! Thanks for all the suggestions.
