Does the washer circled in Red below go inside or outside the fork legs please

Mine is on the inside and looks like this: I have never taken it apart so it may have been fitted incorrectly in the past.

Outside.
Goes on before the castle nut, sits in a nice recess.

Item 14 sits in the recess on the outboard side of the left fork case, the nut then bears on the washer rather than the alloy...

Thanks all, it was missing when I stripped down
Found an M6 penny washer, drilled and filed out the hole perfect fit

I'm going to have a little peek later to make sure it's right. Speak German? Son had to decide on his options in school and they put the subjects into groups after receiving all the 'initial thoughts' of the kids. He wanted to take German but it was in the group with one of his other subjects so had to choose French. Apparently he can't take engineering design, business studies and German. The school says universities look favourably on your application if you have a modern language and advise taking one. I have told him not to worry as he will have his Chinese. My German is non existent, I did French in school, forty odd years ago!

Ich habe Unterricht bei CTB genommen sehr gut deutsch, my mother (when she lived in germany) used to casually drop into conversation 'du bist ein mehrschwein ficke' the germans could never quite tell if she knew what she was saying or not...

I had a little peek at mine. Washer present and correct. Even found a Welsh cap to fit on it. Only need to be able to speak bollocks to have one of these.
