Our catalog record only ties this one to a single year of production, so we can't say it carries across other model years without more to go on. If your bike doesn't match up with what's on record, call the shop and we'll check it against your gearbox before you order.
This is the crank itself, not the folding lever or the return spring — those are separate parts in the same figure. If the splines on your old crank are worn or the lever won't stay tight, this is the part you're replacing.
