Norton Kickstart Shaft with Bush
Kickstart shaft with bush, fitted through the gearbox inner cover to operate the kickstart mechanism.
This is the kickstart shaft with bush, as listed in the gearbox inner cover section of the parts book. It's the shaft the kickstart lever pivots on, running through a bush inside the gearbox inner cover, and it's what transmits the swing of your kick to the gearbox internals to fire the engine over.

The catalog shows this part appearing in gearbox inner cover records from 1971 through 1973. That's what we have on file for it - beyond that span we can't say more about which specific model or gearbox casing it pairs with, so check your own gearbox before ordering.
If you're pulling the inner cover apart for inspection, this is a good spot to check for wear, since the bush is what keeps the shaft running true and stops it from wallowing out the cover over time.
