What is this component on the Yamaha Virago?

I'm interested in what kind of component this is and what its function is. I've highlighted the component in the image.

Question for all motorcycle experts 🙂

Greetings

in about this position, the air filter or its inlet should be – perhaps it hides behind it. However, it may also be that the "thing" has no technical function and is mounted only for optical purposes (the moped manufacturers also occasionally come to such ideas).

This is a cap. Behind it is electronics.

Could be an air filter cover, but I'm not sure.
