Align Rear Wheel
This procedure involves using the rear wheel alignment tool, part no. PV--43528, which is designed
specifically for aligning the rear wheel. Do not rely on the rear axle reference marks for wheel alignment.
A skewed rear axle can damage the drive belt, causing it to fail and you to lose control of the
motorcycle.
WARNING
1. Bring the motorcycle to a vertical position with an appropriate motorcycle lift or a block of wood or
steel placed securely under the frame.
2. Remove the swing arm pivot caps and install the rear wheel alignment tool on the right side of the
motorcycle.
3. Measure and record the distance from the tip of the alignment tool to the center of the rear axle.
4. Install the rear wheel alignment tool on the left side of the motorcycle.
5. Measure and record the distance from the base of the alignment tool to the center of the rear axle. The
right side measurement and the left side measurement must be identical.
