Under the battery cover to the left there are 2 bolt holes that boggle my mind.

 

ABS brake module mounting.

 

Thank you so much for letting my mind at ease!

 

Ok, while we are at it, what are these 3 unused fastener holes for(next to the blue paper clips)? They are on the inside(transmission side) of my inner primary cover:

 

I'm gonna have to say that is one more place for the chrome guys to mount another piece of chrome to

HD probably makes a chrome triangle with Live to Ride on it and Kuryakyn makes one with a chrome tribal flame thing

 

That would be a piece of chrome that nobody would ever see.....

OK, anybody????

 

This is purely a guess, but I do have some manufacturing experience. Sometimes bolt holes are incorporated into designs purely to aid in the manufacturing process, ie, to hold the part during machining, painting, etc.

 

That makes sense, the 3 holes are centered on the inner primary and would be the minimum needed to hold a heavy part in a solid manner...

 

Alright, all cajoling aside, no doubt for machining purposes. They machined those three holes, mount it on a contraption and then perfectly vertically match both sides.

 

They put them there so you will ask questions...and finally have a use for those blue paper clips!


My vote is on machining process also...
