They all seem to end up at the bottom of the bike, inside. Does anyone know how to retrieve these lost screws? I thought about a magnet, but there are a lot of metal parts on the way down to the bottom of that 'pit of no return', so the magnet attaches itself to anything and everything on the way down to the bottom. I tried to hit the bottom to get the screws to jump, which they do, but where are they suppose to jump to?? I have dropped all sorts of nuts, bolts, and screws down there. So far, they have not fallen out where I can see them.

I thought of just buying some replacements, but online they are 2 for $1 plus shipping. I could go to the dealer, but they are 20 miles away. So the obvious solution would be to get those back that went into the pit of no return. But how???
Set fire to the bike. Once the plastic has burned off you'll find the screw beneath it.

You don't wear wingtips at Christmas time. Tradition, you know.
