Timing plug came out of my sons bike last night. Does anyone know what might cause it to come loose. Someone at the track said he had heard that sometimes a plugged vent hose could cause the pressure to blow it out. I was lucky that he caught it before any damage. I checked the oil level and it was OK.

On the YZFs they just loosen up over time as the o-rings get old. Part of your pre-ride checklist should be checking that the inspection plugs are tight, and the o-rings should be checked regularly and replaced as they get old.

I replaced mine with plugs from a TTR125. They are aluminum, instead of plastic, and they seem to stay in place much better.
