Here is a recent "tip" I got from this forum or some other.......I think it's the #5 O-Ring.......5/16th OD X 1/4 ID X 1/16th. Anyway, with about 4 of these O- rings or similar sized ones, you can avoid the aggrevation of dropping your saddlebag fastener (washers) down into your packed saddle bags when you go to remove them for washing the bike or airing the rear tire, etc.
The Dzues fastener (or whatever you call it), also has that washer behind it and many times it falls off when you remove it and ends up in the bottom of a packed full saddlebag or behind the saddlebag liner if you have one like on a (CVO).
Remove the fastener and put the damn washer on it and then one of those O-rings and slide it up tight against the washer/fastener. Now when you go to remove the damn fastener, the washer will go with it and you won't have to remove all your sh** from the saddle bag to retreive the lost washer.
