Hey Anggi,
Just to be sure, check that both your front forks are evenly setup. A little more or less preload or compression damping on one side will also cause your front tyre to wear on one side more than the other.

While you are playing with setup Angi stringline your wheels. This prob wont affect tyre wear but will certainly affect handling.
If your unsure bring it over and I'll show you how.

Hi,
I have a stock 2K model and some time back I noticed a slight wobble (when I let go the bar). I then rode it carefully for around 2000 Ks and today while cleaning I noticed that I had a uneven wear in my front tire. I keep the air pressure in check and also keep on doing regular maintenance and this is a new issue to me (is it the wheel bearing, balancing or the setting of the front forks them self) need help in understanding this issue before I get if fixed.
Thank you for all your help.
Cheers,
BG

I did have the same problem with two bike s of different makes and it turned out that each bike liked a different tyer. When i put Dunlops on they wobbled changed for Mitchelins it stopped then for the busa The same happened but this time i t put on pirrelli on it stopped also. But i would check your head bearing to see if it rooted, also check the suspension (forks) make sure they are all equal clicks.

have you stringlined your back wheel to make sure it's running parallel with your front wheel? If not, that is an indicator that it needs doing.

Hi Max,
If I let go my hand on the bars the bike goes straight (at any speed) - is this a indicator of allingment of the back wheel with front?
Cheers,
Bill

bgaheer Wrote:That really depends on the camber of the road mate. The rear only needs to be out a little to induce uneven wear on your front tyre, whereas if the rear wheel was really out to blazes you'd feel like he bike liked either left or right corners while the opposite would feel like you were crabbing around the corner. Only real way to find out is to get a string line on her. Not terrible hard to do - if you don't have anyone near you who knows how to do it I'll flick you a PM with instructions from A to Z on how to get it done.Madmax Wrote:
