Found this in my oil

Found a piece of metal stuck to the drain plug.
My bike is an 08 FE450 has around 200 hrs.
Couldn't honestly say if it has had any work done to the motor previously. Only had it a couple of months.




The peice of metal sticks to a magnet.

Is it time to look at the top end or pull the motor to bits and inspect?
Or fill back up with oil and check again soon?
 
Looks like a piece of shim from gearbox?? Maybe something that was dropped into the bottom end during repair or during oil change. Any noise or unusual issues when running? I would run it up to see if anything strange is going on. If your familiar with servicing the engine then pull the covers and take a quick look.
