TOP CROWN 71-72 T120
Front fork top crown (top yoke) listed for the 1971-72 T120, part number 97-4035.
The top crown, also called the top yoke, is the casting that caps the telescopic front forks where the fork tubes pass up through the steering head and meet the handlebars. Part number 97-4035 shows up in the parts books for the 1971-72 T120, and it also carries the older H4035 reference if you're working from an earlier parts list.

This crown clamps the tops of the fork tubes and ties the front end together at the top of the steering stem, so it takes the loads from steering and braking through the front wheel. If you're rebuilding a front end from this era it's worth checking the crown you have against the catalog listing before assuming it's the right one, since fork top crowns changed across model years.
We list it here under 97-4035 with H4035 as the alias some older books use for the same part.
