    I've replaced the chain and sprockets on my 1986 VFR750 that has been converted to the F2 wheels front and rear. I had to leave the bike for over a week and now it seems I can't get it back together. Here are the spacers, I'll call them 1, 2, and 3 from left to right:

    Spacer 2 has marks on it consistent with the axle adjusters:

    I can't figure out the wheel spacers. I have three spacers, only two fit inside the bearing grease seal. The first, the tall one, is too big. It won't fit in the seal without force (I didn't force it, it would have torn the seal).

    So I have two spacers that fit inside the wheel, but one of them goes up against the adjuster on its other end. But that can't be, because on the left that makes the wheel off-center, and on the right, it leaves no spacer that will fit in the wheel.
    Can someone offer some guidance on this? I'd really, really appreciate it....
