BSA Rear mounting pad, petrol tank
Rubber rear mounting pad that cushions the petrol tank against the frame at its rear fixing point.
This is the rear mounting pad for the petrol tank, the rubber piece that sits between the tank and the frame where the tank's rear fixing point lands. It cushions the tank against the frame so metal isn't riding directly on metal, and it keeps the tank from rattling or chafing at that mounting point.

The catalog places it in the PETROL TANK, TWINSEAT AND CONTROLS figure, with a single appearance logged for the 1969 model year. We don't have more detail on this one beyond that, so if you're matching it to a specific tank or frame, bring the old pad in or check dimensions against what you've got before ordering.
A grounded catalog title elsewhere calls this a U-shaped gas tank rubber, which lines up with its job as a mounting pad rather than a full tank liner.
