BSA Heat shield, first sets (U.S.A.)
A 1969 first-series U.S.-market heat shield listed in the silencer/sidecover section of the parts book.
This is the heat shield listed in the shop's records as 70-9818, described in the parts book as a first-series heat shield for the U.S. market, dated to 1969. It shows up in the parts book under the sidecovers and silencer heading, alongside oil tank and sidecover listings, which tells us it lives out at the exhaust/silencer end of the machine rather than up on the engine itself.

A heat shield like this one wraps or shields part of the exhaust system to keep heat away from nearby bodywork, the rider's leg, or other components close to the pipe. Beyond that, our record on this one is thin - one appearance, one year, no further breakdown of dimensions or mounting hardware.
Given how sparse the catalog listing is, we'd rather be straight with you than guess at fitment. Call the shop and we'll confirm this one matches your machine before you order.
