Ross, The sense I got was that he used the magnet to ENSURE it wasn't ferrous. Ed

I hope someone can help me here. When I changed the oil on my new-to-me 2006 KLR I thought it strange that the filter was the only part in the bike. It looked like something was missing and of course, after some searching on the parts fiche here - http://www.kawasakipartshouse.net/pages/parts/viewbybrand/9/Kawasaki.aspx - I saw that the filter bypass tube was missing. I then ordered the tube from Arrowhead (super fast service by the way). So here's the question: the parts fiche also shows a "collar" p/n 92027-1695. Is this something that could also be missing or could be thrown out along with the bypass tube? If so, where does this part go? Thanks!
