Here's the inner one, which is different:

Another possibility is the spring, it looks a little weird, but hard to tell if it's the correct one or not from the picture. It should seat nicely up against the plate.
So I the nut wasnt perfect on the thread, now I changed it and I gained about 1mm...this shown setting would work perfect in slipper conditions...giving throttle and the B5 gets up about 2inch!
I also added a picture showing the distance between the spur and the motor plate!
If I leave the spring washer it looks perfect!
