That's a hitch pin. Don't recall any on the CB, but I'll walk out to the garage and have a look around

Retsel - thank you for looking - going dark now so will remove all covers in the morning and have a good look in there - went a short ride this afternoon and nothing fell off - 2013 CB1100A.

Doesn't look familiar. Do you have a wheel chock in the back of your truck? Looks like it could have come off something like that.
RE: Mystery 'R' pin - WK57ABF_imp - 09-21-2017
Ferret - this is a very small pin 10mm long - yes it is similar to a hitch pin in shape - but hitch pins are about 3'' long.
LongRanger - i doubt that its coming off anything but the bike - very sad, i keep everything in rubbermaid boxes - generator/portable winch etc in the truck bed.

Did it come from the "stud" holding the foot peg ?
From the factory they have a split pin but that could have been replaced by a tiny hitch pin.

Ferret's right - looks like the clip that holds pin that holds the hitch in a receiver.

can you put something in the photo with it for scale?
RE: Mystery 'R' pin - Jim21680_imp - 09-21-2017
If it's anything from the bike, it's from the stud holding the foot peg on.
Look here:

But....that looks aftermarket. I don't think the stock pegs have that kind of pin.
