Front wheel reassembling

Finally got my Norton P11 turned around on the Handy Lift, jacked up front, removed brake lever clevis pin, removed the brake plate anchor bolt, loosened the front axle nut, removed the lower fork leg cap nuts and caps, removed front wheel .
The front tire, 3.50x19 Dunlop K70, was a pull thru squeeze thru the four fender bracket fork mount bolts.

Found my spacer was installed on the wrong side. I have no idea who did this , however I am the only mechanic, nuff said.

moved spacer, reinstalled

I checked for the leak on the right slider.
thought it was the bottom upward facing bolt, but no.
then it looked liked the slider cap stud, pulled stud, not drilled thru.
so it appears to be the fork drain plug.

Thanks for photos.

After 51 years of living, I decided that the two front wheel seals could need replacement. Ordered them to AN.
 
Wasn't able to find my P11 parts list so probably everybody know about it, but for the others, I discovered on one side a felt ring after the seal on RH side.

Was thinking about reassembling, not to squeez it with the seal.

Fortunately each one has its own groove.

Found that if the axle is put in the felt ring before putting felt ring and seal, it's easier.
