Hi Bucko, yeah it seems a little odd, a lot of people on the internet describe this "offset" as intended for some to me unknown reason. Lots of Triumph riders got this on there bikes, but to be honest I take this as manufacture fault. It would be cool if someone could confirm, that he's bike has or not some kind of offset. When I measure the bike I have turn the wheels 180 degrees against each other to eliminate possibility of error. When I ride at speed of 50 km/h, the bike tend to kind of go to the right when I don't hold the bars, and at high speed at about 150 km/h it starts to weave. I bought the second swing arm so I'm going to try to modify it and get the bike straight. Well that's the plan.
