Norton Gear, Idler
Idler gear (06-4705) from an electric start gear train, used to transfer drive between starter and engine.
This is the idler gear from the electric start assembly, catalog number 06-4705. Idler gears sit between two other gears to transfer rotation without changing the overall gear direction reversal you'd otherwise get from a direct mesh, and in a starter train they help carry cranking torque from the starter motor into the engine.
