Split pin
A 3/32 in. x 7/8 in. split pin used in the swinging fork, suspension, and chainguard assemblies.
This is a split pin, 3/32 in. by 7/8 in., the kind of small fastener that keeps a clevis pin, wheel spindle nut, or similar fitting from working loose once it's torqued up. It shows up in the catalog under the swinging fork, suspension units, and chainguard figures, so on these machines it's doing its job somewhere in that part of the rear end.

Don't let the size fool you into skipping it. A split pin is a one-time-use item in most shops' practice — once you've bent the legs to lock it in place and then pulled it back out, it's better to fit a new one than to reuse the old one, since the metal's already been worked.
