Exactly...I pulled off the valve cover after and almost flush with the cylinder head there sat the bolt looking at me like ... "what ya do that for??"
Removal was easy though...it was sticking out a tiny bit so at first I tried using needle nose pliers and then vice grips to grab a bit but then...

Anyone else?
Cool video...didn't have the sound on so I can't comment on that. Grainy...yeah, whatever...effects...pretty slick, although the compression doesn't make it show thru on youbetoo.
I do have one unsolicited comment...
You're hitting your apex too early for street riding IMO...not leaving much...
Hmmm good answers so far... I guess if everyone reports half the time, the lousy drivers end up getting a few notices.
