This was interesting. I checked out all the gussets surrounding the neck and they all have un-used holes drilled.
As many segments of manufacturing is blind, to the final product, they receive the specs that include any possible contendency, and build to that spec. These portions of the frame, the support pieces, may have seen use for many models of motorcycles.
Although, it may appear to be less expensive, to build a batch of these support pieces without the holes, it is significantly cheaper to produce a much larger batch, all with the holes than smaller unique batches.
