- Almost correct. It goes on the other end of the spring, where it touches
- the rubber bit in the middle of the filter. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
-
- I had some work done on my bike by a bike shop recently, and when I did my next
- filter change I noticed they had lost the washer and it wasn't in there. I
- left it out no worries at all. If you like, you can post me yours :-)
-
- FYI, The Radian motor is identical to the XJ/FJ/FZ600's.
