TC, I believe that simon is talking about fixing the fact that
the headstock is not inline with the center of the rear tire on
a vmax stock. Simon was hoping that the dymag would shift
to correct the problem, but since it didn't he is wondering about
straightening the frame to correct for the problem.
Simon,
How far is it off? If you swingarm is widened is it not possible
to "shim" the wheel back into line?
Although the out-of-line issue with the vmax causes the bike
to be slightly off center when riding straight I have a hard
time buying that it would cause it to shimmy in the corners,
most likely seems to me like this is a flexibility issue (in
the frame, swingarm, swingarm mount and front folks). Have
you braced your frame, forks and swingarm already?
