Hello! So out for a run on my 2019 V7iii today and noticed this new shiny void in my engine case! It looks just like a bolt shear off.....shiny new! Well I have not messed with anything there and I do not remember anything there so can any kind brother tell me what I have lost?.....it is the bright 'rivet looking' thing in the centre of the photo.
- Ciao Guest, The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com lost his home completely on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out. You can find more info on a post named L.A. Wildfires in the USA section. Our heart and best go out to everyone in this horrific disaster.
What the hell fell off!

I don't see anything out of the ordinary. If it's the same shiny spot that is vertically aligned with the gearbox drain plug then it's there from the factory
Take a deep breath. Standard machining mark, see; https://www.guzzitech.com/forums/threads/v7-registry-picture-thread-add-your-bike.9108/post-187113
Well I had thought that I knew my bike but clearly I didn't! Thanks so much for the information....it is therefore only a machining mark. Thanks

Just an idea.
Seeing as how digital photos cost nothing to take…
Every time I buy a motorcycle, the first day, I put the bike in the bright sunlight and I take detailed photos from every possible angle just for historical reference and to be able to refer back to.
Like, if anybody needed to see photos of a brand new 2012 Stelvio NTX, I have about 110 different ones in high-resolution of every single aspect of the motorcycle including under the seats, inside the bags, all the warning stickers before I take them off, even the USER CODE, literally everything

Well that is obviously what I should have done!

Jeez.... If it wouldn't be here looking at other V7s I wouldn't even know what original V7 looks like anymore...
Jokes aside, that's not being an odd duck, that's a methodical order, being thorough and organized
