Hey all!

I took off the front cover of my 2009 Piaggio Fly 50 (including the glove compartment) and found this bolt sitting at the bottom of my front cover. Looked all around but couldn't quite find any holes that should be missing a bolt. Any idea where this could've fallen out from?

Cheers!

It's not unusual to find nuts, bolts and screws left inside from the factory. If a screw falls inside they are not going to take the machine apart just to recover it.

That's right. However, this screw is used, visible on the screw head. Could it have fallen in at the workshop?
You could look at an exploded view to see if you can find this screw with the same dimensions in the area or above it.
