bike turns tothe right in whoolie on its own!

ok i just got a tire put on my wheel, went to put it back on my bike, went to practice and out of nowhere my bike sways to the right on its own, cant keep it straight... Tensioners are lined up perfectly.. Could it maybe be the spacers in wrong? Maybe needs balanced? hell i dont know.. Someone shoot me some possibilty's on why its doing this.. Thanks

Spacers cant really be put in wrong

What kind of tire? I'd maybe get it balanced and let some air out.

Re: bike turns tothe right in whoolie on its own!

the lines on the swing arm could be out of whack a few mm's from the factory, i suggest ajusting the ajuster's a full mark different, with the further distance on the right, u want the front of the back wheel aiming at your brake side rearset..

when your in a wheelie it will but weight to the left side

so it might make u goto the left.. you'll have to fiddle with it

Re: bike turns tothe right in whoolie on its own!

just get a new tire, and **** with your adjusters.. my old tire I had to run the adjusters super crooked and it still wasn't that great, the new one works like a charm.

bring your tools to the spot and adjust your chain adjusters.. one side out farther than the other to compensate.. should work good, worked great for me.
