[QUOTE=pops2ride;13927832]I don't have a toolbox so isn't it. I agree with what you're saying. It
popped off when I took the bike off the lift. Took it to Harley and they
said it didn't look like a Harley part. My lift is home made and is all wood
and a pipe, see pic. Thanks to all of you guys for your input!!
