It looks like a travel spacer to reduce the travel length of the forks.

Spring side. To be honest I forgot to put it in because it was not even in the manual. Will have a test ride today.

According to the spare parts catalog, that is item 11.4018.072.001: FRONT SUSPENSION CHASSIS LOWER LEG SOLO AIR SHAFT BOTTOM CUPAND BUMP STOP 27 - SID RLC A1/SID XX/RL B1 (2017+)

It goes in the lower leg to position the bump stop correctly, presumably without it you will only rely on the damper side bump stop (17b below).

But I was getting full travel before disassembly just fine. (95% I'd say)
