BSA Ball, clutch push rod thrust (7/32" diameter)
A 7/32 inch diameter thrust ball for the clutch push rod, used in the gearbox and kickstart/footchange assembly.
This is the small thrust ball used in the clutch push rod setup, listed at 7/32 inch diameter. It's a simple, hard-wearing piece that sits in the pushrod line running through the gearbox mainshaft, taking the thrust load as the clutch is worked from the lever.

It turns up in the parts book across the gear cluster and kickstart/footchange figures, which tells you it lives at the interface between the gearbox internals and the clutch operating mechanism rather than being buried deep in the clutch assembly itself. The catalog entries we have span 1969 to 1970, so if your machine falls outside that window it's worth double-checking against your own parts book before ordering.
It's a cheap thing to overlook when you're rebuilding a gearbox or chasing a clutch that doesn't disengage cleanly, so if you're in there anyway it's worth having a fresh one on hand.
