BSA Washer — kickstart crank cotter (·328" × ·505" × ·048")
A small washer fitted at the kickstart cotter pin, sized .328" x .505" x .048".
This is a small washer used at the kickstart cotter pin, part number 68-0331, listed with dimensions of .328 inch by .505 inch by .048 inch. It shows up across catalog entries covering footstart and footchange assemblies and the outer timing cover area, which is where the kickstart lever pin passes through to engage the gearbox internals.

It is a simple hardware piece, but it does real work seating the cotter pin properly so the kickstart lever stays tight on its shaft instead of working loose over time. Given how many figure listings this washer turns up in — footchange, timing cover, and gear cluster drawings alike — it is clearly a common item across those related assemblies rather than a one-off.
Our records don't tie this to a specific model or year beyond the catalog span shown, so if you're matching it against an original parts book, check the number against what you're holding before you order.
