Anyone knows what that is for?

It's a windshield wiper for your sightglass. Get a regular screwdriver and spin it around a few times

OMG... a wiper for the 15mm sight glass?

Well, thank you for your reply! Really surprised by this- that Honda would design something so specific to a small detail on the bike like a sight glass... Old skool retro bike design huh... Seems totally new(modern) to me.. even my BMW K1600 didn't have an oil sight glass! Tongue

Thanks
