Default Wolverine offset... OMG

Well I took a look at my offset of my tires today the rears 32 inchs center to center and the front was 37 inchs center to center and to top it off the rears have one inch spacers! I think I found out why this thing drives like a tank. I'm going to take the bike back and show them how wacky this is.

sounds like they put the front tires on the rear wheels, and the rear tires on the front wheels....my dealer made the same mistake when I had the put my tires on my new wheels. They tried to argue that they did it correctly, but I told them to swap them anyway.

yeah, and that would explian the spacers on the rear... I'd take it back up there, but tell them you want to keep the spacers, since you proabably paid for them already.
And you may get to use them on the front for a lil wider stance, without effecting rideability, but it may..

Definately get them to swap them out...
