I used to wedge mine tween seat and tank while preparing to ride, then I'd put it in my pocket and go. Accidentally left it wedged once for about 100 miles. Phew. Lucky, but not as lucky as the op.

Great news, I lost a small bolt onetime, looked everywhere, no luck. Bike developed a bad vibration, took it to dealer, they were going to replace clutch and tear into her, one tech decided to look around and found bolt wedged between transmission and engine, caused all the vibs...crazy! Ya make this stuff up.
