I have a 1982 CX500, have started the mod process by de-plasticing the front, next job was changing the tyres for scrambler type dual purpose....... Went to put rear wheel back on and appears I've mislaid a spacer, axel goes through non-drive rear arm, then tapered spacer then brake hub, wheel drive side nut & split pin, only it appears as though there should be another spacer on the non drive side, anyone with a standard CX care to measure the distance between the rear arm and hub to put me straight?

Forgot to mention saw an exploded drawing which make Les it look like I don't have anything missing?
cheers, thats the diagram I have, it makes it look like I have all the bits, but will have to take another look, as its just not quite right, wheel is offset to the left and tyre rubs on arm with much more clearance on right hand side
Ah! I've now sorted it, another lesson learnt! I hadn't put the axle in enough, there is a collar on the axle which forces the loose tapir further right, centering the wheel, lesson learnt, thanks for the info
