Heat shield
A 1970-dated exhaust-area heat shield, listed as 71-1221 (alias E11221).
This is a heat shield, part number 71-1221, also listed under the older E11221 number. It shows up in the parts book under the oil tank, panels and exhaust system figure, which puts it down in the exhaust area near the bottom of the engine rather than up top.

A heat shield like this does one job: it keeps engine or exhaust heat from cooking whatever's mounted nearby, whether that's a cable, a panel, or the rider's leg. Our catalog record only ties this one to the 1970 model year, and only shows it appearing once, so we don't have a lot of cross-reference history to lean on here.
If you're trying to match this to your bike, give us a call and we'll confirm fitment before you order. We'd rather get you the right shield than have you guess off a part number alone.
Sorry if we got something wrong here. If you think this information isn't correct, .
