What is this part?

2014 cb1100ex (sae)




Any ideas, folks?!

From near the airbox, throttle body area.
Although may have fallen from somewhere else.

Cheers clever clogs!

Small detail but it wouldn't be a 2014 EX, the EX is for the 2017 models.  If 2014, it would either be a Standard or a Deluxe model.

But, uploading the photo to AI and asking what it is, I got the response: 

"Based on the shape and the clue that it comes from a Honda CB1100, that part is a Rear Chain Adjuster Plate (sometimes listed as an Adjuster, Chain or Chain Tensioner Link in parts catalogs).
How It Works:

• Placement: This small bracket sits horizontally inside the end of the motorcycle's swingarm on either side of the rear wheel.
  
• The Holes:
  • Threaded Side: The end with the welded-on nut (the left side in your photo) is where the long chain adjustment bolt threads into.
    
  • Smooth Side: A pin or shoulder bolt often passes through the other end to connect it to the sliding block that holds the rear axle.
    
• Function: When you turn the chain adjustment bolt at the very back of the swingarm, it pushes against this bracket. This forces the entire axle block assembly backward, pulling the rear wheel back and tightening the drive chain."
  

But I'm not believing AI for this.  Others?
