Better check your front sprocket and output shaft for play. Also check the rear wheel and sprocket bearings.

How far off is it walking?, The belt should not be right against the rear pulley flange.
Also it's normal for it to walk a little when backing up, Or when stopping after a sharp turn, ie, turning sharply into a spot then stopping. Once you move the Spyder 15 feet or more in a straight line it will walk back.
