Split pin
A 3/32 in. x 7/8 in. split pin used in the rear suspension/chainguard area to lock a nut or clevis pin in place.
This is a split pin, sized 3/32 in. by 7/8 in., used to lock a nut or clevis pin in place so it can't work loose. It shows up in the catalog under the swinging fork, suspension units, and chainguard section, which puts it somewhere in the rear suspension or chain guard hardware rather than up front.

Split pins like this one are simple, cheap insurance against a fastener backing off under vibration - you bend the legs after fitting and it stays put until you pull it out to service whatever it's securing. Given the size and where it turns up in the parts book, this one is likely holding a clevis pin or nut on the swinging arm or suspension linkage, but we don't have more detail tying it to one exact spot.
The catalog appearances run from 1967 to 1968, so that's the window we can confirm from our records. If you're not sure this is the right split pin for your application, bring in the old one or give us a call and we'll sort out fitment before you order.
