Default 250R Wheel Alignment - need help

Looking for some info on how to check the alignment of an '84 ATC250R. I haven't found any noticable bends in the frame, swingarm or forks. The service manual only states to "check the alignment if it's pulling to one side". It doesn't tell ya how or where to check it.
Thanks

Is it pulling to one side? Try messing with your tire pressure. You want both rear tires to have the same circumference, not necessarily the same air pressure. You can measure first then adjust or if it is pulling to the right, let some air out of the left rear (or add air in the right) til it stops pulling. My 350x always needed an extra pound or so in the right side or it pulled to the right.

On the 82 250r you can adjust wheel alignment at the rear axle on either side of the swingarm

Thanks, Looks like the circumference of the two tires are 3 inches different. Your suggestion worked and got the tires closer together. Thanks again.
