    Decided to run my 82 Seca 750 without the factory faring for awhile...when I removed it I found this on the headlight. Anyone have any idea if this velcro is factory? If so, what was it for?

    Based on what I see with these old bikes, I'd assume someone used it to mount a radar detector once upon a time.

    So it is not factory, or part of the faring kit?

    It is some aftermarket thing. Nothing Yamaha about it.

    Someone stuck that on there-- probablyvfor radar ..... or if it's recent, a GPS...
    But could be anything---emergency light, whatever. It doesn't matter though..... it ain't original and it ain't got anything on it--
