Mesh grill on left 916 side panel?

Hi all, I’ve had a couple of 916’s over the years and I’m in the market again for a nice 916 sp/sp2/sp3. I came across a bike that had a wire mesh panel incorporated into the left side panel, it looks to be genuine but I’ve never seen it before on any 916 iteration

Your thoughts please

I can’t remember, I can have a look as a couple where I can look tomorrow
