They have lots of installs documented and photographed. It's a pretty good "international" crowd. I know they have pictures of frame plugs in there for the 1098, but at least you can see what they will look like installed.

DLS can vouche for the good info, right? :)

Do these things serve a purpose

A buddy of mine didn't have any in his old Honda. One day he was riding down the highway with his wife on the back and a snake, yes a snake, suddenly appeared on top of his tank. It had slithered out of his frame and was checking out what was going on. He quickly, carefully pulled the bike over and got off. The snake disappeared back into the frame and would not come out. So the wife caught a ride with a buddy as he slowly motored home, paranoid the damn thing would poke it's head out again.

I never found out how he got it outta there.

So, yes. They do serve a purpose. They keep out the snakes.

It depends on which bike you're talking about.  

The monsters with a tail chop have an access area for critters to get into, just like how *** has bug spray lids over his exhausts for his scoots... they are to prevent critters. 

Ducati SBKs there are no openings on the frame, the frame plugs on the SBK are to hide the engine mount bolts
