        I got away with one reuse. Ended up buying a selection set off Amazon, as all 3 of my bikes have multiple sealing washers in different sizes so cheaper in the long run.

        Current bikes:
        DT125X '07
        Street Triple R '11
        Aprilia ETV1000 '02

        Previous:
        DR650RSE '96
        FJ1200 '92

                If you don't have 2p for a new washer or the shops shut you can anneal copper to make it soft again to use as if new. Google the process if interested or skint 😉

                  @nottsbiker Pretty sure I just didn't know it was supposed to be reused.

                  Explains why my car is leaking gearbox oil FFS!

                  Definitely need to sort that out

                    I'd fit a new one but its handy to do on the old gas cooker if you are working on the bike at night or on a Sunday etc
