Z1 rear spindle arrangement

I think my rear wheel was fitted wrong by the previous owner, but just to be sure, could one of you guys with a drum brake model please post a couple of pictures showing how it should all go together please, spacers etc....

Kev, Looks fine ... A little hard to see on Left hand side. Maybe the internals are incorrect. Look at bad sprocket bearing, wrong double ended bering retainer, wrong distance piece or badly worn dampers if you are still in trouble.
