I also believe Kropatchek is correct. Traditionally a Savage rear well appears off set to the left, yet yours is way to the right. Double check your spacers, especially #17 as you may have that one inserted backwards. Going from memory, I think #19 on the left side is the longer spacer. I can confirm later tonight when I get home.

the spacers are differents sized so they are very difficult if not impossible to get wrong. retake the photo from excatly behind machine. you were standing a little left of center. that makes the wheel appear to the right. also dont' be fooled by the offset shock on the left. that makes the right side look closer. the real question is how does the machine track when riding at 50 mph with hands off the bars. if it tracks straight, no problem. if it tracks off, then try readjusting alignment, and dont use the marks.

A clue, its not somthing missing....

I don't see a problem, except for the board stuck in the frame, the dirt on the paint, and the comfy looking seat Roll Eyes

The rear wheel is offset "looking" but it is centered in the fender. The shock is just offset.

Reply #13 - 05/07/05 at 09:36:58 Looks to me that either your drive belt is coming apart or it is turned around backward, with the teeth sticking up...other than that the only problem I see is that the car is backing up over top of your bike and will crunch it to death. Of course, I could just be halucinating again.
