What is this? Pic inside

Hey all... I was taking off the plastics last night to get them ready for paint, and found these under the passenger seat. One on each side. Wondering what they are?? (The canvas strap thing)

The bike is a 2002 zx6r

***EDIT*** Sorry, no idea why the pic is displaying so large

looks like passenger handles or maybe a tie down point like TMNT said.

It's a tie down point. Is there a matching one on the opposite side?

Yea there is. I know for sure it's not a helmet loop. The helmet loop is the metal tab thing with the rubber on the end of it just to the right of where the canvas loop is attached

I'd say it was a helmet loop for the type of helmet that you can't fit the buckle under the seat.....it'd be a fairly pointless tiedown loop as it'd crack the plastics (if they were on) as soon as you put tension on it, and also the footpegs are right underneath and are a perfectly good tiedown point!
