It's taken ages to sort out the discs on the 500 and I've made the rookie mistake of not recording image sof where the 2 washers you can see on the axle go and now I've forgotten

It would be really handy if anyone could tell me and sa

Try the 500 parts book for an exploded diagram - there should be one in the library

The washers go under the nut on the left side and the outer end of the long through spindle on the right/drive side

Cheers, and does it matter which way round the spacer goes?

Yes, the smaller diameter end fits in the bearing oil seal - note there is no oil seal fitted in your photo

The parts list will tell you the sizes usually and any bearing stockists should have them. All common sizes.

hAVING LOOKED AT THE PARTS DIAGRAM it looks like there's already a seal on the inside of the circlip and it doesn't show another one?
