The older book form of this part number is E1472, so if you're working from an earlier parts book or pulling parts off a bike with that stamped on an invoice, know it's the same physical piece under a newer number.
Our catalog record for this one is brief - it shows up in two listings spanning 1960 to 1962, but we don't have more detail beyond that. Give us a call with your engine specifics and we'll help confirm this is the right pinion before you order.
