Default BDR fuel filler neck - WARNING
FYI-

I was working on my BDR last week and noticed that not one of the 5mm screws (there are about 6-7) securing the fuel filler ring to the body had a nut or washer.

I reached through the rear wheel well (with the wheel off) and was able to pop each one out with my finger. They are the countersunk screws you can see around the fuel filler cap.

I'm sure I am an unique case, but it can't hurt to check. I sincerely doubt all vibrated loose by themselves.

Better safe than sorry.
