[QUOTE="DannyMoto07, post: 1193397, member: 76870"] Hmm, that's weird. Go with my first suggestion and rip everything apart then. With the spokes, spin the nipple so that they're snug, then take a sharpie and mark off every 5th spoke. Then go around and give each spoke a half-inch turn. This will snug up the spoke as true as possible. Then, do as I suggested earlier... grease bearings, check shims, check the axle for bends, check the brake for binding, etc.. etc.. It sounds a little more screwed up than I thought. Maybe someone with a KDX could chime in and give some insight as to how the rear end should line up, because from all my experience, the wheel should track true when the axle is evenly lined up on both sides. As I said, the problem is either a bad bearing, crooked axle, OR.. quite possibly, the swing-arm could be bent. Check out the swing-arm and the swing-arm mount in the frame. Make sure the bushings are in there and THAT axle is straight as well. Good luck! Dan [/QUOTE]
