San Antonio, TX | I found this spring today between the left gas tank and the fairing.
As I was backing out I looked into the space between the glove box and the Triple Tree. I saw this spring on top of the left fuel cell were the wire bundles are located.
What is it and where does it go?
I just had some of the front of the Vision replaced during a recent repair. This part my have come with the replacement part or it could have been accidentally omitted.
The I.D. of the spring is about 5/8's of an inch.

New Bohemia, Va | hmmm, I'm not real sure but if you look in the book you should find it it. It has to do with either the door on the left or the fuel door, inconjunction with the ignition switch. It does look familiar....

Dallas, Texas | I know what that is, it's that spring thingy that keeps the doo-hickey tight against the other thing-a-majig. I hope that's no too technical. |

Gettysburg, 2008 Tour Premium | At this point in time I am sure you are glad you went through the trouble to photograph and post your inquiry here. I will look over my bike when I get home and see if I can identify anything similar. |

Dublin, Ohio | I looked through the service manual and there are 2 springs that look like that on either side of a long bar that is part of the windshield motor mount. Maybe it's one of those? |

If it is something that can be seen under the "Access V" please take a picture of it so I see if it is missing on my Vision.
Thanks!

come on, take a video of it while you're trying to get it on... just don't shoot your eye out. I hate to know you lost your vision to your, uh, Vision. |
