Front Wheel sequence
My bike is a 2006 Sportster 1200 Custom. While removing the front wheel some of my hardware scattered, and after having a new tire installed I put everything back together. After torquing and reinstalling the brake caliper the wheel turns fine. However I would like to know the proper sequence that the spacers, etc. go in. The H-D manual shows an exploded view for a dual disk, which helped some but not enough to cure my doubts.
My sequence is as follows (moving from the non-caliper side over):
1. Axle and pin
2. Fork
3. shim (?)
4. Hub
5. Spacer
6. Fork
7. Washer
8. Locking nut
9. Nut
Appreciate any help I can get. Lots of good people and info here.

+1 - Other than sliding the axle in from the correct side, the only thing that can get screwed up is the spacers, and if you get them wrong, the brake rotor won't line up properly with the caliper.
