Hi folks,
I'm new to the vespa world, I just got a barn fresh P200e that was mostly together, but had a bag of parts that I had to put back on the scooter. I figured out where almost everything goes, except for this bolt

any ideas?? It's the only part that I don't have a reasonable clue as to where it should go.

Thanks everyone!

I don't think that's a Vespa bolt. As far as I know, there are no allen bolts anywhere on a P200, especially a stainless one.

Thanks. The thing has been sitting in various garages and barns for a decade. I'm betting this got thrown in the glovebox by accident then.

Figured I would share a few photos of the beast in question.

needs a bit of TLC, but I think she'll clean up nicely.
