Does anyone know what this is for?

Interesting, looks to be factory could it be instrument illumination level?

That's what I thought, but it doesn't appear to affect the intrument illumination. Very perplexing.

It is for an accessory, look at this stock 2015 tank.

A dealer should know.

A dealer should know.

Thanks, I appreciate the input. I will try to talk to a dealer about it. Nothing in manual or that I can see online.

 

[Greyfell]

It looks like a volume control; do you have any audio inputs on the bike?

 

[Vector]

Heated seat?

 

[Philois]

Agree definitely not a factory switch.

I'm with Philois and Greyfell. Neither original nor factory option. Doesn't look like a Triumph-style design. Undoing three allen-head screws will able you to check the wiring connected to the dial. My bet is that it's not connected into the standard wiring harness.

It's not factory. I installed a garage door opener there. It could be the same. Does the switch push down and return by itself? Try removing the console and see what's on the other side.

Thank you, I will take a peek underneath and see.

It is actually a dial, love the idea of a garage door opener though. I plan to remove the cover and take a peek, thank you.

Maybe it is just to give you something to do with your left hand when you are not clutching. You could maybe make noises as you twist it. Just sayin.

That is not factory. Pull the instrument cluster off and see where the wires go. Usually there is a rubber plug in that spot. ...J.D.

Thanks, I took it off, the wires were cut, went nowhere. Removed it and installed the rubber plug again. Never figured out what it went to.
