The first version had a battery and tools compartment as a part of the fuel tank. Among other disadvantages (center of gravity, fuel capacity, accessibility) the cold airstream in wintertimes cooled the battery down to a performance minimum. Therefore the compartment had been moved behind the left leg of the driver.
The mentioned chrome plug is the end cap of a spring or suspension strut of the driver's seat. It is a relict because the preceding model didn't have a soft tail suspension.

There is a chrome plug at the end of the upper frame tube. Likely that there are parts or tools or documentation stored in there if plug is removed. Also check inside of the headlite shell or any other places that mite serve as stowage...
