Have I lost Something ? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago  
I was going over my bike before a road trip and noticed this shiny threaded hole on the carb with nothing in it. Did I loose something?

You may be talking about the tapped hole for a second heater. My '05 only came with one installed. One tapped hole is empty.

Ole
If your looking at the carb from the right side of the bike is the hole on the left side of the carb and up near the top? If yes then it's normal nothing missing nothing to worry about!

Ok Sorry I just pulled the tank and it is a threaded hole to no where. It just spooked me. I was having some minor back pops on these cooler mornings and thought I had better check vacume caps and all the hoses as well as the choke.
