I had those on mine and if I remember right it was for some kind of access. One went missing on one of my motors and I was advised to not worry about it. Someone else will confirm or deny its purpose, but for the time being it isn't anything you need to worry about in running the bike. Have fun.

For sure not to add oil. It is some kind of inspection or access hole. I recall being all worried about losing mine and was advised by I think Rockenstein, or maybe Corgi to not worry about it. You could PM those guys and ask.

It would make it a whole lot easier to grease the gears seeing as how you'd have to remove the centrifugal clutch to do it otherwise.

I have the same bolt and same question. Haven't touched it in two years of riding.
