Use a straight edge from your front pulley to your rear pulley. This may help you get close.

Read my thread. I spent a lot of time. Trying to figure my alghiment issues. Almost got talked into rebuilding my motor. Start small don't rush. Check the obvious first. Front tire. Air pressure, were pattern, feel the tire see if its all lumpy feeling. Don't go crazy. Tires make a big difference.

You put the streight edge up against the back of the clutch basket. It should line up with the outer edge of the compensator sprocket.
Your pulleys have nothing to do with a wobble??
