About the best thing that could have happened to it is if the timing chain took it to the crankcase, then don't worry be happy as it might get stuck in the filter area but shouldn't hurt anything riding the bottom of the crankcase.

Get your eye down almost at the level of the concrete and look around really good you may be able to see it like that. I can't see it getting by the valve and into the combustion chamber but if it did I'd just hope it didn't beat up the piston too bad. Look really hard, does anybody have a metal detector, ask your neighbors.

Now you need to take the old carb apart to see if you can locate the problem it had and you may need it for spare parts.

A good rule of thumb is never should an adjustment be at either extreme.

Alleyoop meant to say tighten it at the carb so you can loosen it on the handlebar.

You need to show 3 threads on the adjuster on your carb so you can get to a happy place with the 1 on the handlebar which is beyond it's range.

We have dudes playing sheet rock mud buckets in Richmond. I don't know how they get different tones from them but some are quite good at it.

Next time you see a homeless person playing a guitar on the side of the road give him a good tip and get the scraps he cuts off his strings.

I was hitch hiking in Arizona and was crossing the Navajo reservation. I must of gotten 20 rides with indians who were curious why I was there. Navajos have round looking faces and look very friendly. I got a ride with an Apache and he had a much narrower face, not as happy or friendly looking.

I knew a dude who was in Vietnam and he could tell a Vietnamese from a Chinese or a Korean. He said the faces have different features.
