It is your remote shock resevoir. My first guess would be from Fox.

Couple of choices. Replace the entire rear shock and buy a replacement shock with a built on Resevoir. or just boltup the remote similar to what I did which is out of the way.

dont take the ressi off, the shock will not perform like it was designed to with out it. judging from the pic, it looks like it has another compression/rebound setting on the end of the can.
