Twistgrip head assembly (Nos. 8-12)
Twistgrip head assembly for the handlebar throttle control, also known by its earlier part number H698.
This is the twistgrip head assembly, part number 97-0698, sometimes still found under its older book number H698. It's the body of the throttle twistgrip that sits on the handlebar, the piece the rider actually rotates to open the throttle. The listing notes it covers items numbered 8 through 12 in the parts book, so this is sold as a grouped assembly rather than a single loose piece.

Our catalog record ties this to the HANDLEBARS section and shows it appearing across catalog entries from 1960 to 1962. We don't have more detail than that on which specific models it was fitted to, so if you're matching this against a particular bike, give us a call and we'll help confirm fitment before you order.
If your existing twistgrip is cracked, seized up, or missing pieces from this same numbered range, this assembly is the way to sort it out as a unit rather than chasing individual components.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
