Washer – clutch cable abutment locknut
Washer for the clutch cable abutment locknut on the outer primary chaincase cover.
This is a washer that sits at the clutch cable abutment on the outer primary/chaincase cover, where the cable adjuster and its locknut come through to set clutch lever free play. It's a small part but it does real work - it gives the locknut a proper seat to bear against so the adjustment holds once you've got the clutch cable tensioned the way you want it.

It shows up in the parts books under the chaincase and clutch control figures, alongside the chain tensioner and outer primary cover hardware. If you're chasing a clutch cable that won't hold its adjustment, or the abutment point looks chewed up or missing its washer, this is worth checking.
Catalog appearances put this in the 1973-1974 window, so treat that as what our records show rather than a firm cutoff - confirm against your own bike before ordering if you're unsure.
