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???

is your axle straight? my kfx pulls hard to left cuz the inner wall of rim is bent. check ur rims carefully?

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.
