    Mystery Rubber part; under seat near side panel

    About to put on newly rebuilt carbs. While fishing for battery tender cable, I knocked this off. Haven’t checked parts fiches yet. Can someone tell where this goes (‘80 GS1100LT)?

        Just a cushion for the battery that's stuck to the inside of the battery box. The adhesive gave up after a few decades.

          Looks like the rear pad that the fuel tank sits on usually there's a flat steel strip that it sits on no 10 on pic.

            I think you are right. That makes sense, since I had removed the tank to get to the carbs. Thanks!

              Yep, after another look that's a double thickness of rubber so the tank pad makes sense. I thought it was a lot thinner.
