Distance piece
A spacer (distance piece) from the swinging fork and rear suspension pivot assembly, Triumph part 82-5741.
This is a distance piece from the swinging fork and rear suspension assembly, listed in Triumph's parts books under 82-5741, with the older-style number F5741 showing up for the same part. A distance piece is a spacer that sits on a pivot or shaft to take up length and keep the surrounding components running true, rather than being a bearing or bushing itself.

It shows up in catalog entries tied to the swinging arm and rear suspension unit area, so it's doing its job somewhere in that pivot assembly at the back of the bike. The catalog record spans appearances from 1964 into 1965, but we don't have more detail than that on exactly which end of the pivot it sits at.
If you're rebuilding the swinging fork pivot or replacing worn bushings back there, it's worth having this on hand to check against what's actually on your bike before you put it back together. Call the shop if you want us to confirm fitment before you order.
