BSA Spring washer — pillion footrest anchor bolt
A spring washer fitted under the pillion footrest anchor bolt to keep the mounting tight.
This is a spring washer used under the pillion footrest anchor bolt. Its job is simple — it keeps tension on the bolt so the footrest mounting stays tight instead of working loose from vibration over time.

In our records it shows up in the footrest and support rail area, alongside the handrail and coil platform hardware. It's a small piece, but on a bike where the pillion perch and footrests take a lot of flex and knock, a worn or missing spring washer is often why a footrest bracket starts to rattle or shift.
Our catalog listing spans 1969 to 1971 across a few different figure appearances, so it was used in more than one footrest/support rail arrangement during that stretch. If you're not sure yours is the right one for your setup, give us a call before ordering.
