Should be on the right hand side (as you sit on the bike), just below the oil fill cap, should be about a 10mm bolt or phillips head

it may be on the left side by the ignition cover, I have a 97' with it in the left side and although they have different cases, suzuki may have stuck with it on the left side for 2000

That's true, the 96 had the check screw on the left side too now that I think of it.

Ok Found it, on the Right side, under the the Filler plug, but way under near were the bottom front mounts are. Thanks to you all. OH and it was a 10mm bolt with Philips head.
