KICK START COTTER BSA
A kick start cotter pin (BSA-listed) that locks the kick start lever onto its shaft.
This is a kick start cotter pin, listed in the catalog as a BSA part. It's the pin that locks the kick start lever onto its shaft so the lever stays put when you swing it down to fire the engine. Cotters like this are a wear item — the shaft and the pin both take a beating over years of kicking the bike over, and a worn one lets the lever slip or develop play.

The part carries the older L105 number in earlier books, and our records show it was later superseded by 57-1222, so if you're chasing this one down and come up with either of those numbers you're looking at the same physical piece.
We don't have more detail on this one beyond the description and the numbering history, so if you're not sure it's an exact match for what came off your bike, call the shop and we'll confirm before you order.
