Is there a prize Mike, because i have never seen it. How big? Take a photo with a tape measure in it.
-
I have a 550 k3 and I can not recognise it... :o
-
I had a K3 a few years back and definitely recognise that part.
I'm buggered if I can place it though...
[must be getting old]

looks very much like a clamp off off a laboratory stand which is used to 2 sections together rather than part of a bike, the screws are missing tho. I have one very similar somewhere that comes in handy as a tap wrench when in a tight spot. Just a thought

It looks aftermarket. Sure it wasn't for panniers or something. I can't imagine Honda using grub screws for something.
-
definitely not original part, like lester said probably a mount for an accessory.

I have no recollection of seeing one of those bits (I had 2 550k3's but neither very original so not exactly definative), I geuss a microfiche exam might shed more light, or it could be left over from a previous accsessory long since removed - perhaps for luggage or even a handy thing to hook bungies on.
-
... looks like its designed to tie two 1/2" rods together @ 90 degrees. What 1/2" rods are there at the back of the bike??? Perhaps a left-over from an indicator stalk / aftermarket part?
-
... possibly looks like part of a dial gauge set up. You been tru'ing the spokes and thrown it in the wrong parts box!

Virtually every project bike and many runners I have bought have had bits of tooling found in either the boxes of bits or lodged in odd paces, under tailight holders or whatever - wonder if the rear wheel was rebult at some distant point in the past and the dti gauge holder got left on the machine I know you say it hasn't been done but that might have been there years, or the dealer might have just checked the rear to be safe.
-
Ian DB has it right, definitely a clamp for chemistry lab or dial gauge use.

Ok Mike... "Sorted Ta" not good enough... put us out of our collective miseries!
Don't be embarrassed, if its part of a dolls house you're building, or that Puch Moped you truly cosset.... then we won't laugh.
