Today's photo quiz - where is this part from?

Post by PeteF »

I am just in the final throws of rebuilding my FW, cleaning brake fluid away from around the clutch release cylinder area, and this drops to the floor. I have NO idea where it came from. It is plastic, slightly tapered, 12mm long and hollow with a hole at one end, a dome shape at the other.

It looks like a "plug", but for where?

No prizes :wink:

Nothing standard... It may be some aftermarket bung of some sort, does the bike have an alarm, scotoiler or anything like that fitted ?

Do I win £5 ? :lol: :lol:
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...

Is it a toggle from the end of a jacket pull cord or glove pull cord :crazy:

Thanks to everyone that looked, and for the suggestions especially the funny ones :lol:
I still have no idea where it's from but at least I know it's not some critical part of the bike I forgot to put back :)

OK I found it, quite by chance.

The bungee was supporting something I'd unbolted but didn't disconnect. No one got a prize :lol:
