HEAT SHIELD 71 BSA 650
Heat shield for BSA 650 twins, catalog part number 71-2790.
This is a heat shield, part number 71-2790, and the catalog description points to it being used on BSA 650 machines around the 1971 model year. That puts it outside the Triumph line proper, even though it shows up in the parts numbering here — the description names BSA plainly, so that's what it is.

Heat shields of this type generally mount near the exhaust header to keep engine heat off adjacent components or off the rider's leg, but our records on this specific one are thin beyond the description itself.
If you're trying to match this up to a BSA A65-family twin, give the shop a call and we'll confirm the fitment details before you order — we don't have more depth on this one in our files than what's printed above.
