When replacing your front wheel on your ABS MT after its been away for a new tyre fitted:

DO NOT think you have lost a wheel spacer.

DO NOT rush indoors, fire up the laptop to look at the NON ABS wheel diagram. (It has two spacers).

DO NOT go back out to the garage swearing and waste half an hour trying to get it to fit/looking for a lost spacer/getting annoyed that you left it in the wheel and the tyre place has lost it.

DO look at the ABS version diagram, it clearly shows only one spacer. The wheel spindle (if you bothered to screw it in all the way) makes up the gap on the abs sensor side.

DO NOT tell anyone you are a prize plonker :)
