Seems I'm missing a part - But cant find it on the diagrams

It seems I lost a part last night on my ride home.  Being that its under my GPS, I really didnt notice that it was gone, until I realized something didnt look right:

Its the cap on the fork tube holder that resides in between the handlebar mounts: 

Does anyone know the Part Number for this cap?  I couldnt find it on the Parts Diagrams on the Kawi site:

Seen here in this image from the Hippo Hands site:

Are you talking about the center bolt for the upper triple clamp or the black plastic plug that goes in it? Several folks have had the whole center bolt come off after it wasn't properly tightened before delivery.

See attached. It's located in the FRAME section of the fiche.

These pn's are from the 2010 Fiche

If the entire bolt is missing, I'd highly recommend not riding the bike until you get it replaced, since it holds the upper triple clamp in place. Without it, the only thing holding your handlebars on the bike are the fork pinch clamp bolts on the triple tree.
 
Fred - I found more answers (from you) in this thread....Thanks - My bike will be sitting until the parts come in...

thanks again for the direction and help.

Mine wasn't tight from new. I complained several times to the dealer that I had a small thump when I came to a hard stop. I thought the head bearings were loose. Come to find out that it's common that this bolt is not torqued to spec from the factory or dealer. I would ask it to be covered under warranty if I was you. If not, get a new one, use a little blue loc-tite, the proper tool, and torque to spec.
