Default Just a question

Hey!
I recently had to have the frame replaced on my 2016 Heritage and it all looks good.
Anybody know what the 2 threaded holes are for on the lower left of the bike just ahead of the swingarm? Am I missing a couple of bolts or does some accessory mount here and can I just get some kind of plug or clip from a body shop to fill them for now?
Don't really hurt anything just don't like the look.
Thanks

Thanks!
I knew someone could answer that for me.
I'll stop by the dealership sometime and see what they have to put in there or a body shop might have something too.
I would never have thought of a muffler bracket though. So thanks for the info.

Why did you have to have your frame replaced? Especially for a brand new bike. I had my frame replaced but I t-boned a car that ran a stop sign.

.
I had t lay it down to avoid a pickup backing out of a driveway. All was really wrong with the frame was the tab that the engine guard mounts to at the top had cracked so the insurance said to cover any liability later on they wanted it replaced rather than repaired.
Left side of the bike got pretty scuffed too. But all is fixed now and road rash all healed .
