I cant figure it out I got new swingarm bushings, and a brand new rear axle. I was noticing that my right rear tire was wearing alot faster than the left. I thought I had the front end not set up incorrectly. But when I pull a catwalk the bike vears to the right, standing on the two2 back wheels, can anyone tell me what i should do, or what could be causing the problem.
Thanks

 

....your tire pressure even in both sides? one of ur bearings might be gone (axle bearings)...?

 

ya it is, the right tire wore quite a bit so i changed the rear tires, it still went to the right

 

is it drastic to the right or just pulls slowly? seems most ds's i've riden pull to the right slowly, it has been brought up before that the chain and sprocket is on the right side to cause this. not sure i ever fully understood this. when i lost a bearing it was very noticeable on the pull.

 

I never noticed that on my Baja, long as ur tires are the same she should go straight, chian/sprocket regardless, lol but if thats the case get a heavier muffler [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] haha

 

it was actually talked about in the past that if you pull to the right just turn your front wheels and the wind resistance will pull you the way you need to go [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

If either of the rear bearing rows goes, it will slow the entire axle down. It wouldn't pull to one side or the other.

I would get a scale and 3 blocks of wood that are the same thickness as the scale. Set your air pressure to 5 lbs in all 4 tires. Make sure this is very precise.

Then put the bike up on the blocks and rotate the scale to each tire recording the weight. The front should be within a couple pounds on each side and the back should be within a couple pounds on each side.

My suspicion is that you have one side in the rear that is significantly heavier than the other.

Why did you put a new axle on it? Did you bend the first axle? If so, you might have a tslightly twisted swing arm that will cause this exact situation.

It is the tire wear that makes me think you are putting down much more weight on one side in the rear.
