thank you, leafman60

I removed my Stelvio front wheel and during that simple process, the axel spacer fell out.  Just to be certain, I checked the Guzzi parts manual to see which side it's supposed to be on.  The manual is clear that it's on the opposite side from the ABS ring and the opposite side from the threaded end of the axle--clearly, the left side is where it goes.

Nope; that's not playing.

I checked leafman60's installation guide from 2012 and he makes clear that it goes on the right side (flange out).

And, so it does.  Thank you, leafman60 (and thank you Luap for the search box).  It's perhaps a small thing, but that's what makes life better.

I would be in deep do-do without the help of W.G.

I have the suspicion Daniel that I would not be the only one!

Agreed, Leafmans tutorial on the carc swingarm saved me a whole lot of learning curve.  It's awesome here that so many people contribute .  Proud to be a member.

 Pass the hat.

Moto Guzzi has learned!  I had the same thought when putting my front wheel back on the V85 and a check of the manual shows it clearly on the right with flange out as is correct.  I have used many guides provided by the forum members in the past and they are a great help.
