I was asked by someone who rides an '87 k100 what the bolt is on my '92 k100rs and I couldn't tell him. It's not labeled in the manual and my service manual isn't even for the '92. What is it?

It`s for a locking tool, to lock the cam chain tensioner.
On a 4V you need to remove the cams to adjust the valves.
Instead of changing shims, you change the complete cam follower on a 4V.

All the others I've looked at have a divet where this bolt goes but no bolt.
