Default ltz400 pulling

one thing i love to do is to ride wheelies. something im pretty good at. the problem is it pulls real hard to the right everytime i ride a wheelie. cant figure out what the problem is. have a new axle, rims, wheel hubs.

what could be making it pull so bad???

Another thing to check is if you have the axle & carrier straight. The 03's have the $hitty chain adjustment & maybe it's cockeyed & dog tracking really bad. If it is, you're also killing the chain,sprockets & tires.

make sure the axle is straight in the carrier, it could be of just enough to cause a problem or the frame is bent putting to much weight to one side

cool ill check the carrier. thats probably what it is. i had to replace the bearings and axle so i might have not put it back in straight.
theCATman your right. i hate the chain adjustment on my bike.
