DRZ question: what is the funny...

[ballistic]

... little hole on the shifter side cylinder? Its about a 3/16 hole on the side of cylinder. What is it, and can water get inside the engine thru it when washing my bike?:eek:

Its a drain hole for the where the spark plug sits. If any water gets down around where your plug is, it can drain out that little hole.

Yup, .....BigBores' right, and its a good idea to keep it clean too, when you go to change your plug, there'll be less crap in the hole.
