Front spacer Fitting Problems sounds stupid I know

So just been fitting some spacers to the Z, that back ones have gone on easy and are spot on.

So started to do the front and there's a Nut and some kind of spacer coming out of the Hub/Disc, I think it the disc retaining Nut but it doesn't look standard and I can't remember how it's meant to look......

Any ideas guys?

I'm wondering if the discs aren't the right ones or something......

Just remove it.

 

Some say......... it's to stop you putting a rear wheel on the front.

 

O is that what it's for!! Now I feel really stupid haha

Well now it's too dark so it'll have to be done tomorrow now.....

 

I say ' Some say' as we never seem to have had a definite YES that is what it is for. :)

 

(not so dumb,--------it has been asked lots and lots and lots lots more times on here before you asked)

It also has the job of helping to remove the discs when they stick to the hub, you undo the bolt, remove the spacer and wind the bolt back in and it pops the disc off .

I'll keep it in mind when I'm changing my discs

Thanks
