Girling built the dampers for a lot of British bikes through this era, so seeing that name here is expected and not a sign of a wrong part number. Our record only ties this one to a single catalog appearance in 1971, so we don't have a wider spread of model years to point to.
If you're trying to match a shock for a rebuild, check the Girling number stamped on the unit itself against 64052495 before you order, and give us a call if you want to confirm fitment against what's on your bike.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
