Yes, it`s been apart couple times, now there is 85mm pistons and mildly ported head and cams. But i have done all the assembling, none other have touched it.
Itīs not the starter clutch or transmission bearing needle, they are bigger than this. And there is no swingin pickup.
I`m beginning to believe somebody has put it there
It looks just like some engine part, shiny needle. I don`t have better picture, and it doesn`t help, itīs just a plain pin.
