BASH PLATE BSA A65
A bash plate (sump/skid plate) for the BSA A65 that guards the underside of the crankcase.
This is a bash plate for the BSA A65, sometimes called a sump plate or skid plate in the older parts books. It mounts under the crankcase to keep rocks, curbs, and rutted trails from putting a dent or a crack in the bottom of the engine.

The canonical listing here calls out the A65 specifically, so this is a BSA part, not a Triumph one, even though it's filed under a Triumph-style part number in our system. If you're working on an A65 and running it on anything rougher than smooth pavement, a plate like this is cheap protection for the crankcase.
We don't have much more detail on file for this one beyond the description, so give us a call if you want to confirm exact fitment before you order.
