It's a 'tool' to assist in installing the new nut that secures the back end of the bib onto the fender - instructions will show how to use.

There was no instructions....LOL

I'll save it for next time I need a zip tie for the bike. Going to be so nice to have an official MoCo zip tie !

I have the same one. I have been riding a lot of 2up lately, leave it under the passenger seat to protect fender. Won't hurt!

Well got it on there. No problems of course, easy install. The only thing I did need to do was throw a washer on the rear seat mount cause the added width of the bib.
