My rear tire is wearing more on the RH side of the rear tire, is there an adjustment I can do or should I take it back to the dealer and let them fix it considering they put the tire on ? Thanks

Any adjustment has to center on the drive belt. If your drive belt is running true, then you have something else going on.
Do you have an Arachnid from Vee Rubber on it? If so, that is how they wear, they are junk.
Really! What would cause a rear tire to wear on one side or the other if everything else is right, I wonder. Kenda's wear in the middle because they are junk. Bit there is a logical explanation for that.Quote:

Start by checking the position of the drive belt like Ron mentioned. I wouldn't think a tire would only wear on one side unless you have a broken belt in it...but then I would think it would shake you right off the bike....?Quote:

Tire pressure stays around 28psi. I have about 4k on the tire. I took it back to the dealer and had them look at it Friday morning. They said everything is in spec. They moved the belt to make it track different so we will see. Thanks for the answers.
Do yourself a favor and get rid of the tire. I’d rather run a Kenda than an Arachnid.Quote:
