Speedometer head KPH (SSM5001 /01)
A KPH-reading speedometer head, catalog reference SSM5001/01.
This is a speedometer head, and the part number tells you the main thing you need to know before ordering: it reads in KPH rather than MPH. The catalog identifies it under the SSM5001/01 designation, which is how Smiths-style instruments of this type were tagged.

It shows up in the parts book under the SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER figure, so it's the round instrument mounted where the rider can see it, tracking road speed off the front wheel drive. Beyond that, our catalog record for this one is thin - just the single entry with no other years or fitment notes attached to it.
If you're trying to match this to a specific bike, give the shop a call. With only one catalog appearance and a narrow year window on file, we'd rather confirm the fit with you than have you guess.
