Rubber washer
A rubber cushioning washer used in Triumph oil tank and side panel mounting hardware.
This is a rubber washer that turns up repeatedly in the oil tank and side panel hardware on Triumphs from the mid-60s through the mid-70s catalogs. It's a small cushioning piece, the kind of thing that sits between metal and metal (or metal and the tank/panel surface) to stop rattling and take up slack in the mounting.

It shows up under the part number 82-6968, also listed as 84-15632 or F6968 in older references — same physical part, different number depending on which parts book you're holding. The catalog places it across oil tank mounting and panel/twinseat hardware, so it could be doing similar duty in a couple of spots depending on how the bike is set up.
It's a simple item and one worth having a spare or two of on hand, since aging rubber isn't something you want holding your oil tank or side panels in place. Call the shop if you want us to confirm which mounting point yours goes to before you order.
