Default This fell out ....
I was doing a bar swap on my 04 FatBoy and this part fell out of the right side switch housing. Not sure where it goes.

Looks like the clamp piece that tightens up against your throttle cable when you turn the thumb screw cruise control. The screw sits up against this piece.

goes on the screw at the bottom of the throttle side switch housing, the throttle screw that you can use for cruise control and testing. There is an indentation on that piece that the screw goes into.

No, now don't mess me up ... I've already found the blinker reservoir. It's under the seat and I filled it yesterday.

That violation is called "P W R" (pissing while riding). You`re lucky you didn`t get busted for that......
