Hello from Ireland.
Can't be the first with this issue but couldn't find anything in a search.
Noticed a small vibration from the rhs beak mount just above indicator.
On inspection noticed the plastic part that holds the brass threaded nipple was broken.
What have ye done to fix this issue?

First pic is with screw and brass insert removed,
Second pic you can see brass insert broken away from plastic tab before I removed.
 
you could try ...

this depends on compatability of zip tie with beak

remove beak , melt a zip tie into the hole , let it set , redrill hole so you have to push the insert in . insert screw to open insert to fill hole.

Or perhaps melt Lego bricks using Acetone* and fill the hole that way - Again, it depends on whether the plastics are compatible.

*1./ yes - i'm serious. :p
2./ I first saw this on a Guzzi forum! :D

Good Luck.
