*** 1986 Honda atc350x rear axle question ***
Hello all, I have recently put on new tires on my 350X - original date coded OEM tires on the shelf. Looking at it after a couple minutes, I noticed the left rear tire appears to stick out about half an inch more than the right side. Stock rims and hubs, never messed around with anything. I took off the wheels to measure the mating surface for the wheel on the hub to the swing arm, on both sides the axle sticks out exactly 14 inches, but yet looking at the bike from the very front with the rear wheels off, I can clearly see that the left hub is further out compared to the right. Every thing else is completely straight, including the fenders. What is going on here? What can be adjusted to correct this? Does the axle need to be offset to make the rear wheels centered relative to the swing arm? Anything opinion/comments help. Thank you.
