the large bolts are torqued at 80 pounds you will need a 1/2 inch ratchet then you need to take off the brake calliper,and the bolts on the right side are 53 pounds.don't forget to retorqe them

Thanks everyone.

I got them off and adjusted the chain to make it a little more tighter and aligned the axel perfectly... and it still pulls to the right [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Ahh, I cant spend all that money right now though! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

That really bothers me... I got it aligned perfectly and tires are = pressure and it wont ride straight - its a pain in the **** when trying to do long wheelies [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

has the bike ever been wrecked?
why I was asking is check to make sure something isnt bent
make sure you have the same distance between the front tires and the rear on
both sides. check your shocks to make sure you dont have
a bad one. good luck on finding the problem
