I was changing my oil yesterday and decided to reuse my old crush washer as i couldnt find any local ones (Sunday). Where can I buy a handful for cheap...i.e. eBay or Amazon. Yamaha wants like $4 plus ship from vendors. Ludicrous!

The washer is 12mm ID so any aluminum crush washer in that size should work, copper ones may dent the sealing surface.

Unless it's damaged I wouldn't worry about replacing it, I've reused the one on mine half a dozen times and it's totally fine.

I reused the original one this time and just cranked on the torque wrench an extra 1 ft.lb. for assurance.

IMO crush washer are so cheap you should change it every time you change your oil. Just buy a bunch from amazon for like 5 bucks.
