Need help identifing this nut/rivet thing from forward controls area
Did my EnergyOne clutch pack this weekend. I removed one bolt and loosened the other on my left side forward controls to get access. After words, this was on the ground under the front controls. I didn't remove it, and I'm not sure where it could have removed itself from.
It's smooth on the other side like a button cap. Goldish in color. Threaded like a screw goes into it.
I considered it may not have come from the bike, but didn't think to look at the lift. I have a simple little jack, can't imagine where it'd go, but I'll double check! Thanks!
it looks like 1/2 of a "chicago screw". they're use on quality pants belts, take the screws out and you can change the buckle on the belt.
Damn! I can't believe it, but you're totally right! Well close enough to spark a memory. I read your post and it clicked.
I used to have a fork bag mounted. I took it off and when I posted to classifieds (still for sale!) I noticed a "rivet" had gone missing. I guess the little bugger has been riding around wedged in my controls for a good long while.

Thank god you caught that before the bag sold. Now remove that "Missing one Chicago Screw" from your AD
