    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Okay so my bike pulls to the left its only really noticeable when I take my hands of the bars I'm but it's fairly significant any ideas?
 
I just put new tires on today they are equal on the scale should I make them on even to compensate?
 
The scales are not always accurate, each bike can/will be different.

If you have determined some time in the past that yours are accurate, that's OK, but you could be off by about 1/4 of one of those marks. It would be hard to see, yet make enough of a difference to notice at the handlebars.

That is one of those adjustments that I don't miss. I will happily put up with a heavier bike on which I can not change the final drive ratio for the convenience of less overall maintenance. :o

Do you sit offset without realizing it? My bike steers to one side if I let the bars go. But after experimenting I've figured out it's just that I favor putting my right foot down at stops so I sit offset on the bike but it feels like I sit balanced.
 
I dont believe so, because in order for the bike to go strait i have t o leaaaaan to the right.

Might be worth checking though, I found the same, to correct it I need to lean over at a silly angle.
 
Maybe you are sitting crooked. Maybe the bike is bent.
Maybe the wheel is out of alignment.
Might be Corialis Force related.
Or something to do with the Earth's lines of flux.
Have the flux capacitors been calibrated lately?
 
Have you adjusted your chain lately? :-k

Check your rear wheel alignment.

This! I don't look at the scales on the side of my chain adjusters at all when aligning the rear wheel. My old Suzuki master taught me to look at the spaces between the the side plates of the chain and the sprocket, and to make those even when aligning the rear wheel. Any number of things can cause the scales to be out of whack, but if your chain rides evenly on the sprocket, you should be good to go.
