Norton Spring, Return
A gearbox return spring for the outer cover/kickstart assembly on Norton gearboxes, listed for 1975.
This is a return spring out of the gearbox outer cover, on the kickstart side. The parts book lists it plainly as Spring, Return, and the figure it comes from is the Gearbox Outer Cover and Kickstart assembly - so it's part of the mechanism that snaps the gear-change or kickstart linkage back into position after it's actuated.

We don't have much more detail on this one from our own records beyond that single catalog listing, and it shows up for the 1975 model year in our data. This is a Norton part, not a Triumph piece, so if you're working on a Commando gearbox this is worth checking against your parts book.
Springs like this are simple wear items - they lose tension over time and the lever gets sloppy or stops returning properly. Call the shop if you want us to confirm it matches what's in your gearbox before you order.
