Default Greetings

New member-Mike is first name. On some bike or another since I was 16.
Working on my lady's Sportster 1200 1994 and it's stuck in 5th gear. Found a part in the Primary drive area and I can't figure out what the heck it is. Don't know and can not find the part in any of my books. I'm new to working on this beast so does any one know where this would come from?
Facts-bike stuck in 5th gear-shifted hard into 1st a few days before. Replaced clutch ramp 2 months ago.
