FORK NUT,71- ZINC RECESS
One-piece zinc fork top nut with decal recess, used on 1971-1972 oil-in-frame telescopic front forks.
This is the fork top nut, the one-piece nut that caps off the top of the front fork tube on OIF-era models. It carries a shallow recess machined into the top face for the decal that sits under it, a detail specific to this design. The catalog lists it as a zinc-finished piece, appearing in the telescopic front fork section for 1971-1972.

The legacy H4258 number is the earlier form of this same part, so if your parts book lists H4258 you're looking at the same nut under 97-4258 today.
We carry it as a straightforward replacement piece for the top fork covers on bikes from this run. If you're not sure whether your fork tube uses this one-piece nut design versus an earlier or later style, give us a call before you order and we'll sort out fitment.
