orangepeeled Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hi all, I have changed my front tire out (after much learning, trials, and tribulation [see what I did there?]), only to find that my front wheel is offset. Its not crooked, so to speak... its just not centered and I cannot figure out why it would be like this. It is sitting to the left-side of the bike. It doesn't wobble when it turns, its just not centered between the forks. Everything is fitting back together the way it should to my knowledge... I made sure to key up the speedometer and the drum will even bolt in as it should... anyone seen this before or have any idea what I may have done wrong? I have attached a pic of each side so you can see how close the tire is in the fender to the left side and how far it is from the right side. I'm at a bit of a loss with this one! Thanks!

lineaway Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 I`d go back to the speedo drive as I seem to have done that in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axulsuv Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Spacers / speedo drive are not right , or you forgot a piece ! forks should be just a knats a$$ wider than the complete hub assembly ...No stress on anything fitting it into place ... Get it to bobs on the weekend of the school , MAKE SURE you have all the pieces and it's a 5 min. fix ...

feetupfun Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 The speedo drive housing has a flat on it that needs to be positioned against the fork leg. The photo shows that your speedo drive housing is sitting wrongly, which is probably the cause of your problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
