I can't remember where to put the plastic piece shown in attachment. Does anybody regognice it and can help me? I did try to fit it but with no luck.

It bolts to the front cylinder, and a frame tab on the left.  Check out the bolting arrangement on the fiche.
Most people consider it to be a heat shield for the carbs.  I think it's there to prevent you from changing your front spark plug.
It also has a notch for the choke cable.

Change the spark plug? Why? I think you're supposed to ride it until the starter fills with oil then park it.
It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is then to persist in delusion, however satisfying or reassuring.  Carl Sagan
