Title: Rear tire out of line
Post by: brucea382 on January 10, 2014, 10:22:29 PM

Ok.....i squashed the idea of selling my beloved zx. I noticed the other day that my rear tire is wearing heavy on left side. Any one else had or have this issue? Also i looked and i dont see much that is out of line. Is it possible that the motor mount bushing is bad.......or would that even cause that?


instead of selling opted to build my zx. Just couldnt part with it........new sutai cdi.......72cc piston and jug.....milled new head ever so slightly and new clutch. Hopefully new variator and carb next......GO ZX 50 LOL......


                                     Thanks in advance for any advice

Sometimes its motor bushings but more often its the shock bushing hanger on the engine. Also a lot of the time we lean one way while riding and it can cause the bike to look like its riding at an angle from behind.
