Default Where did this come from?

I removed the fuel tank on my 07 fatboy to get to the wiring connectors when I changed handlebars and this flat rubber oring about 1/8" think a little bigger around than a quarter was laying on the floor. What is it for and where does it go?

Sits between your frame and the tank. The bolt at the bottom of the tank.
