First, let's make sure that there is NO hard luggage on the bike. True?
It's obvious that luggage unequally weighted will cause this. Another
obvious cause is the typical camber to the right on our roads. This "Road
Crown" effect will most certainly wear the front tire more on it's left
side. If you feel that none of these factors are present, then simply
adjust the camber on the front upper A-arm. This can be accomplished in
about 1/2 hr. Let me know if you need details.

Is my GTS wacked, or do you think there is a good
explanation why it would favor a pull to the right when
coasting with no hands?

In other words, at low moderate speeds (30-40), as an
example, you let go of the bars and it pulls right.
Sometimes more or less than others, but the tendency is
there, and sometimes strong.

1. A mechanic took a quick look, and couldn't determine a
reason other than the rear wheel being out of line, but a
check of marks ruled that out.

2. Tire pressure is fine.

3. I think it may be the front tire which has some good wear
spots on it.  The tire would be considered "almost" time to
replace.

Any other ideas, or GTS quirks?
