    Just taking a wild guess here: That's LEFT side when you are sitting on the bike.......and it's down WAY low. Probably round and about the size of a nickel.

    Did the book tell you that you need to have the bike upright when looking at the "window" ??
    To do it right, it usually takes 2 people or a long inspection mirror.

    I'm sure that your dealer would be happy to explain the whole process to you.
