Wierd problem with 5th gen VFR

[silverbullet132]

Our bikes are different. But I can see the Oil filter and the starter motor if I remove the side fairings and lower fairings. If I were to remove the starter I'd remove that front lower too.

Thanks, after removing the front lower that was behind the wheel I could see it. Got it out after a fine struggle, now what? Do I need to somehow cover that hole where it went into my engine?
