Hi,
Anyone recognize the brown/orange thing in the picture?
I don't know if this is an original thing or if some prev user added it for some reason I cant figure out.
It is like a stiff wire but not very hard (If that makes any sense). I just cant figure out what it is supposed to do except maybe work like a ground wire or so.
Any help is appreciated.
Happy New Year by the way!

Looks like someone jury-rigged a holder for the gas tank vent box. Should be a rubber strap. You can still get them. I don't recall the part number:
Holds item 41 in the picture under the cowl:

Thank you - I would never found this myself!
The previous owner must have replaced the vent box with the red one you see in the picture below.
Hmmm. So I have the option to remove the red one with one that is hidden.
The rubber ring is no 42 in the diagram and has part number 90120161822
Found these threads: I leave them here for future reference.
