I took this off a looooong time ago, I have even galvanized the part, so I suppose it goes somewhere visible. It has an elastic belt to fasten something...

Fuel tank on a motorbike
Motorbike battery retainer Braz.
It holds the little tool kit pouch next to a jack in the boot or a tool kit for a bike under the seat
No bolts and nuts on the fuel tank? I guess if a bike gets out of gas there is no point in walking to the next gas station to buy a disposable jerry, right? Just undo the rubber band and take the tank with ya. LOL.Quote:

Your photo reminded me of a battery retainer on a bike In my shed. The rubber strap and hook in bracket is definitely to keep something in place but quick and easy to remove. A Jack perhaps? I’m not familiar with the Y60 setup.Quote:

This is pretty typical under a motor bike seat but often they just use 1. Most of the cars i have owned including the Y62 carried a small tool kit like this held down beside the jack and often with a rubber strap.Quote:

Looking at it again, I'm not so sure, the holes disposition is different.

This is the only pair of holes with the appropriate distance apart that I could find in the region. Seems ok to hold a bag of tools under the seat as people suggested. The opposite side has no similar holes for the second strap though.

Awesome mate, thank you!
My driver's seat is on the other side but it seems Nissan didn't bother moving the holes to make it more reachable for the driver.
Funny part is that I have two of those rubber holders. Not sure where the other came from.
Thanks Garret.
