Hi...took off the tires to have some new rubber installed and was preparing to re-install and it looks like I am missing a collar.  Not sure if it's the left or right.  I have one that is about 1.1 inches...I assume that's the right...how big is the left/other one?  Not sure if it's at the dealer where they were changed or what...but damn...
Thanks in advance.

If you're taking the wheel, always leave your spacers at home! That way they shouldn't get lost. Dealer will never own up to loosing them.
Buuut, the shorter of the two goes on the left side (clutch lever) and barely sticks out. So it may be there, just not as exposed as the right would be

Thanks...I found it in the back seat of the truck...waiting for air filter/brake pads and then I'm riding...looks like you're close...maybe I'll run into you in LS sometime.
