Self-locking nut
A self-locking nut used in the oil tank mounting, per 1968 parts book listings.
This is a self-locking nut listed against the oil tank figure in the parts books, appearing across two catalog entries for the 1968 model year. Self-locking nuts of this type are used where vibration would otherwise walk a plain nut loose over time, and on an oil tank mount that matters since a fastener working free can let the tank shift or start a leak at the mounting point.

The catalog record doesn't spell out thread size or material for this one, so if you're ordering to match an existing fastener, best to check the thread against what's actually on your bike before you commit. It's a small part but it's doing a real job holding the oil tank in place.
