Is that possible??

I keep riding it and for some reason it seems to be "pulling" to the left.

Really! LOL!!

I rode no handed a couple of times and it seems to be pulling to the left.

Hell, I didn't know it was possible for a two wheeled vehicle.

Anyone have any ideas or has it happened to you??

It's stock and I've done no mods.

Thanks!

 

Sounds like your riding position isn't completely centered over the bike, and more weight is being transferred to the left side.

Or maybe the left side of your body is heavier than your right side.

 

Any tyre mods?

A predisposition to one side or another would probably mean either a weight balance issue (like a phatail installation) or that the rear axle wasn't centered properly... unless your left foot is considerably larger than your right :P

 

It could be a number of things that can cause it.
If your still running the stock spoked frontwheel it might need the spokesto be trued up.
Your rear wheel can alsobe a very likely suspect,A rear wheel not properly aligned isone of the major causes of a bike pulling to one side or the other...
Uneven tire wear can also play a role.

 

you have 2 shock's under bike, has any one adjusted one or both, one could be set softer or one could be firmer. just my 2 cent's PURPLE

Great advice so far guys!!

I will check ALL those out so far (even if I've gained any weight on just one side!! LOL!)

Didn't even think about the shocks. Thought MAYBE rear tire alignment.

Will do some checking!!

Anymore thoughts are welcome though,

THANKS AGAIN!!

 

I experienced this after the rear tire was replaced. I aligned the rear tire and presto, straight down the road with no hands (on a flat surface).
I found a website that suggested making a caliper out of a wire coat hanger to make sure both sides of the axle were the same distance from the center of the swingarm pivot bolt.

I like some of the other suggestions as well, but this is a simple place to start.

Good Luck!

 

align the rear tire to the belt, not the swingarm bolts.

Had the same problem. alignment fixed the problem.
