For sure ? Today I have adjusted my valves and don't see this holding nothing in place , just that part with some screw on it fixed to bare /solid metal. But this is hitting my valve /head cover and making some knocking sound when heats up.

Here's the inside of my valves/head cover.

The valve cover is 'floating' in rubber gaskets and grommets. That keeps the valve cover grounded in case there is a spark plug arc to it.

Post by: tparr on May 19, 2023, 08:31:05 AM: I have a 2019 v7iii and I noticed this part while inspecting valve clearance. My initial thought ( like Wayne) was a ground path for the valve cover. If it is indeed ratling against the cover perhaps you could put a bit more bend in it.

For sure ?

Sorry, I was referring to part 6. I read the diagram wrong.
