Timing cover c/w Patent plate
Timing cover assembly with patent plate fitted, for the unit-construction 650/750 twin engine's timing side.
71-7318 is the timing cover for the unit-construction twins, the housing that closes off the timing side of the engine and carries the patent plate. The description on file notes it comes complete with the patent plate fitted, so this is a finished assembly rather than a bare casting.

The timing cover sits over the camshaft and points gear area on the right side of the engine, and it's what gives the motor its finished look on that side along with carrying the patent number plate that identifies the machine. Our catalog record for this one only shows a single appearance, tied to 1980, so we don't have a broad model-year spread on file for it.
Given how sparse our record is on exact year and model fitment, give us a call or drop a note with your frame and engine numbers before you order, and we'll confirm it's the right cover for your bike.
