On the front of the bike, on the cross bar that connects the 2 forks, there is one screw on the left hand side that holds a clamp for the brake lines.

On the right hand side I see an open screw hole.

Is that hole supposed to have a dummy screw in it? or has it always been empty.

Just curious.

I just went and checked my lower triple clamp... no hole like the one you describe.

I wonder how many bikes have, or don't have, that extra hole? Curious.

I can't remember for sure but I believe that the extra "empty" hole is on 05 & up models with the larger lower tree for the 43mm forks.

That hole looks like it's filled up on my '06 12R. Not with a screw, it's painted over.

On my 05 the boss is there but the hole was never drilled and taped
