What is this chrome piece?
« on: January 04, 2020, 04:22:16 PM »
I just recently acquired a 2016 Eldorado and this chrome piece came with it but I can't figure out where it goes. Maybe one of you fellas know.

My heavens I thought this forum had a bunch of knowledgeable Guzzi folks. Everyone with a Guzzi should know that’s a tuning fork to tune 2016 and up 1400s😂
