Oil looks like it needs to be changed anyway. I never let it get that black.

There is definitely a hole, I wish it was just a drain plug come loose. It would save me the hassle of dealing with insurance.

Something similar happened to a guy I used to ride with; the hole was threaded. I never rode with him again.

Looks like the occurrences were an omen of worse to come, and I'd say your lucky the intended trip to Atlantic City ended the way it did.

Looks like a circular / tubular impact. Some kind of iron pipe or rebar maybe? Not that it matters, of course. Interesting, regardless.

I know somebody said about my oil needing changed. Its odd. The bike use to see redline oil before my ownership. I switched to amsoil. That oil only has 2k miles. I guess all the stopping and going causes some heat. Never thought it would be that dark with only 2k. But yeah as for the hole im not sure what I hit, I usually have my eyes peeled for foreign objects. Guess one got by me this time SMH...
