Abutment ring
Steering head bearing abutment ring/spacer, PN 83-2007, used in the telescopic front fork/steering head assembly on oil-in-frame twins.
This is the abutment ring, PN 83-2007, sometimes listed under the older F12007 alias. The catalog places it in the telescopic front fork figures, and the grounding data confirms it as a steering head bearing spacer used on oil-in-frame twins.

An abutment ring like this sits in the steering head assembly, giving the bearing something square and consistent to seat against so the headrace bearings load up correctly. It is a small part but an important one for how the steering feels once everything is torqued together.
The catalog record spans a wide range of years and multiple appearances, which tells us this part carried forward across several seasons of oil-in-frame production. If you are chasing a specific model, confirm fitment with us before you order since our own catalog data does not spell out which exact bike years and models it goes with.
