Hi there

Can anyone explain to me how to adjust the rear wheel alignment on my 03 er500 please?

It's quite a way out, and failed its mot on it, but i can't for the life of me get the wheel to budge.

Do i have to undo some of the fastenings on the brake drum, cause that seems to be the only thing stopping the wheel from moving.

Thanks.

Granted this is from the 2004> models but it is still the same theory.

That was pretty much the same diagram from my owners manual, but thanks anyway Thumbs Up

Turns out i had done everything right, but one of the chain adjusters had a load of crud behind it, so didn't want to budge.
a few blasts of wd40 and some wiggling cleared it out.
