Okay guys, I am absolutely furious right now. I ordered fun parts for the hawk the other day and yesterday I got a call from the PO who told me he forgot to mention that the plastic dipstick broke off and fell inside the motor. He said he took it to a mechanic who supposedly removed it. He told me he also changed the oil a couple days ago. It seems to me like it would've looked like this (or worse) then if it had really fallen and not been removed, so I didn't think much of it. Well I went to change the oil today, and lo and behold... this is what I find...





So... how fucked am I? It's plastic, I know it's not good for it at all but how much damage did it do/could it have done to the motor? I can flush the motor and fill it back up and ride off into the sunset right? How would I go about that?

I'm not blaming the PO, I'm blaming the bullshit shop for not doing the work.
