Why won't it go straight?
Whenever I do a wheelie on my raptor, it veers to the left.. not fast.. but to fast to keep riding it more than 50 yards.. i checked the tire pressure and adjusted it a hundred times trying to get it just right.. that didn't help.. so then I adjusted the alignment on the back.. it still didn't help.. is there a more accurate way to find when the wheels are straight than the little marks they have on it.. the mark that you go by on the right side is on the opposite side of the metal piece.. so you sort of have to eye ball it..

i think the weight shift might help.. is there a more accurate way to see if they are straight than the little marks on the swing arm? i don't know how one would have more tread.. they are stock tires and they aren't that old.. about 2 months.. hopefully the weight shift might help.. i won't put my wallet in my pocket.. not like i have anything in it.. but you never know that might throw me off.. and scientificly it is on the right side to make me go left.. ha.. and if thats not it i guess i can tinker with the alignment some more.. hopfully someone knows a good way to align them..

This is going to be one of two things. Either the axel is cocked or the stagger is off. Just because the tire pressure is the same does not mean the tire diameter is the same. To check stagger, take a soft tape measure and wrap it around the tire. Make sure they are both the same, if not adjust the tire pressure to adjust the tire size. Don't worry about the tire pressure not being the same. You can grow your tire to an inch or two by doing this. This should solve your problem. If not you need to check if the axel is square in the quad.
