Try to center the center stud when you put it back together, but don't fret over it.  Procedure: Before installing the three bolts, loosen the nut on the other end of the center stud, remove any shims, install and snug well the three with one gasket.  See if you're hitting the swingarm, and if so, install two gaskets and snug the three well again. Snug the center stud trying to center it. Measure the gap to the center stud and record.  Three out again, put shims on the center and put it all together with something to seal the threads of the three, especially the lowest one. When all tightened, bend the tabs. Make sure the center stud is tight.


BTW, the parts drawing seems to show shim(s) on the center stud between the inner and outer primary covers - there should be none there - they go between the stud and inner cover.
