Hello, I was washing my bike and by the end of it found this on the ground. Anyone know where it belongs?

much appreciated

Looks to me just like the clip from a helmet quick release buckle.

Doubt it. Its pretty old and crusty.
Are you 100 percent sure it fell off the bike?

Place a quarter next to it so we can see the scale of it.
I'm guessing the straight section is about 1.5"??

^^ This... It looks like a Wire Loom Keeper...

Hi guys, thanks for your input.
I don’t have a quarter on me but hope the tape measure helps. I don’t have a quick release helmet so I would think it’s for the Wire loom keeper as advised by @Racepres

so long as nothing is gonna fall out on the ride about! ? I’m not stressing much longer

Reminds me of some security retainer clip on a fluid line fitting.
I remember a similar thing on my transmission oil cooler fitting on the bottom of my Chevy radiator!!

I would suggest you check your fuel line fittings ... if it ever was on your motorcycle.

I would second that, not familiar with the Scout, but does look like the clip on a fluid line quick connector, looks too big to be fuel though, perhaps oil or coolant?

It was solved! It was a clip for a clothes pin. Look up about three posts.

 

[Dr.Shifty]

Another great motorcycle mystery solved.

 

[Dr.Shifty]

However .... the next mystery is, how did @SJ12DS know what it was. Does he ride a Goldwing and is not telling?

 

[SJ12DS]

HAHa LOL. Yeah, I knew I had seen that clip somewhere before, but not on a vehicle. Never rode a Gold wing.
