Hello everyone,

Just recently bought a 2018 1000-5 deluxe leftover. I have taken it out twice and wash after every ride. I noticed two metal cylinders on the ground after washing. Can anyone tell me where these came from or what they are ? I have not noticed any real issues yet. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Does a 6mm bolt fit inside them?

No they are only 6.3 mm around. Just odd because one end has like a small depression. My fist thought was a bearing of some sort but I have never seen a bearing with a depression on one end.

Hard to tell from the pics if they are hollow or solid. You're saying solid?.... 6.3mm diameter? Around means circumference in my world....

My apologies, yes they are solid and have a circumference of 6.3mm.

I Can't think of what it would be. It's not uncommon for things to fall down on the skid plate during production and make its way out during a wash. Most likely its nothing to worry about.

Ok awesome thank you for responding. I learn a lot about my rig on this forum but when I searched I found nothing. I appreciate your help.
I cant swear its nothing but I've been through these machines enough to be pretty confident those arent a cause for alarm.

Agree,
Both of us are on our second 1000 build and haven't seen this part.
Not saying they dont belong. Just dont have a clue where.
