Kickstarter return spring
Kickstarter return spring for the gearbox inner cover assembly, PN 11441.
Part number 11441 is the kickstarter return spring, the coil spring that pulls the kickstart lever back up to its resting position after you've swung it through and fired the engine. It lives inside the gearbox, in the area covered by the gearbox shafts, bearings, and inner cover, where it works against the kickstart shaft and quadrant.

The manufacturer code on this one shows Lucas, but a return spring is a mechanical gearbox part, not an electrical one, so don't read too much into that tag. Our catalog records show this part turning up across gearbox listings from 1967 through 1970.
If your kickstart lever isn't snapping back the way it should, or stays down after use, a tired or broken return spring is a common culprit. Confirm fitment against your gearbox before ordering since we don't have model-specific detail tied to this entry beyond the years it shows up in our records.
