Default Wheel spacing

Allo,

I have an 02. After I got the front wheel off, calipers off, rotors off, I got them all back on and now the spacing seems to be off a bit. its a tad bigger of a gap on the left then on the right. The spacers that go over the hubs are seated inside the hub so Im not sure what the problem is. Everything seems to be in nick and I would like to know if this is normal or it needs to be exact center? The exact gap is like 1/8th inch less ont he right than on the left. Its just when I look at how close the spokes are to the calipers and the rotors to the forks it concerns me a bit. Thoughts?

I haven't looked at mine but if the rotors fit in the calipers (and the calipers can only bolt in one way) I would guess that it is right. But, saying that, it doesn't sound like it would be correct.

one side has the bigger spacer, the other has the smaller spacer. if i recall right, the clutch lever side has the big spacer
edit: actually i think its the only side with a spacer

yea, its bigger. The one on the left side does come out like the right spacer, its just smaller. Not sure if its called a spacer or not. With that said that makes me think its right. The calipers are on and the front wheel is spinning free.

Thanks.
