How to align the rear wheel of a motorcycle

Just hold a steel ruler flat against the rear sprocket and align that with the chain ... DONE. Try it.

Actuly gona try that, thanks for the tip :)

I measure the distance from the centre of the rear axle to the centre of the swing arm pivot. The distance should be the same on both sides, which makes the rear wheel in line with the frame, which, as long as everything else is right, should be in true alignment.

+The Yellow Peril Same way myself! God this is an old comment ;)

Thanks for sharing and really awesome method ... but when attaching the string to an object in front of the bike you have to go with eyesight from all the way back, right ? 

Iboo30 commented on 06 Jan 2014

Aha okay, now I got it ... thanks man :) 

mrmaxstorey commented on 06 Jan 2014

No thats not required, when the string touches the rear of the rear tire and the front of the rear tire, it forms a line which just extends all the way forward past the front tire

Tommy250R commented on 05 Jan 2014

Tommy250R commented on 06 Jan 2014

thanx max i just started recently i stopped riding because i noticed some dryrot on the front tire only happens when i hit abot 10 to 5 mph while stopping , its quick wobble and the bike pulls slightly , to the right . I do have a bent right handle bar

mrmaxstorey commented on 05 Jan 2014

Also potentially a warped rotor

mrmaxstorey commented on 05 Jan 2014

Tires might have something to do with it, sounds a lot like an unbalanced wheel though. When you get your tires put on make sure they balance the wheel too

Cool upgrade

Arizona RE commented on 18 Oct 2015

+100SpokeRiderz Thanks! The Bonneville is a great bike! B-)

dbest1a Vlogs commented on 09 Sep 2015

Very nice bike , congrats to you and your wife .. I love the assortment of colors these come in .. Also the price ... ooolala ... they are affordable. I would like to think they are pretty good on maintenance? What do they charge for first service? (Even though I know most, myself included would do this ourselves)

Arizona RE commented on 09 Sep 2015

+dbest1a Vlogs Such a classic look to these bikes, and legendary heritage. I believe they want $230 for the first service, which isn't bad as far as new bikes go, but yeah, according to the maintenance requirements I'll be able to handle it myself. B-)

HoaryRider commented on 07 Sep 2015

You are going to let her ride her bike, or is it going to be the other way around. :-) Congrats on the new pony for the stable. Cheers

Arizona RE commented on 07 Sep 2015

+HoaryRider Oh yeah, she's been riding it, I've been taking it out between her trips. It's a fun experience, giving me a whole new thought process in to what my next bike will be...

hoohoohoblin commented on 07 Sep 2015

Excellent choice! Comfort, speed, reliability, style, practicality! Makes me want to feed some steroids to my Royal Enfield. 

Arizona RE commented on 07 Sep 2015

+hoohoohoblin Haha! I still have the Enfield, in fact, the Bonnie feels like the Honda in my stable, so it's almost as if the CTX and the RE mated and made the Bonneville! All the strength and reliability of my CTX, but the looks of the Enfield B-)

motonut commented on 07 Sep 2015

Wow! Congrats to both of you! That's an awesome bike.

Arizona RE commented on 07 Sep 2015

+motonut It should be fun! Thanks B-)

stirlingshire commented on 06 Sep 2015

My first bike was a 1985 Honda Rebel and it had the exact same engine as your wife's former Nighthawk. I thought it was just swell until I rode a larger bike. This is a great step up for her! I get the feeling it won't see the inside of the garage very much ; )

Arizona RE commented on 06 Sep 2015

+stirlingshire Yes, the Nighthawk is the taller upright seating brother of the Rebel! Those motors are as solid as Singer sewing machines, and sound like'em too! Between the two of us, the Bonneville is going to see allot of road time B-)
