HANDLEBAR RETAINING CAP 7/8
7/8 inch handlebar retaining cap for the rigid-mount top yoke clamp on Triumph telescopic front forks, 1967-1974.
This is the handlebar retaining cap that clamps down over the bars where they mount at the top yoke on Triumph telescopic front forks. It's the 7/8 inch size, matching the standard handlebar tube diameter, and it works as part of a rigid-mount clamp arrangement rather than the later rubber-mounted setup. The legacy code for this one is H722, so if your parts book or an old box of spares shows that number, it's the same cap.

Our records show this part turning up across a run of telescopic front fork figures from 1967 into 1974, including the U.S.A.-spec fork listings for T100C, T100R, TR6C, and T120TT, along with the fork parts and steering damper figures for those same machines. It's a small piece but it does real work holding the bar in place against the top yoke, so check the cap for cracks or a chewed-out bolt hole before you put it back into service.
If you're rebuilding a top yoke clamp assembly, this cap is usually replaced along with its mounting bolts and washers rather than on its own, so have those on hand too. Confirm against your fork type before ordering, since rigid-mount and rubber-mount handlebar setups aren't interchangeable and the catalog appearances above only confirm the models and years listed.
