Rear wheel assembly

[Ian Westlake]

Mines the same. I also found the alignment tabs could rotate a degree  
or two when u tightened the axle nut causing even more problems with  
judging the alignment.   What I did was get a couple of 30 mm diameter  
10mm hole washers then opened the hole to 20 mm on one & 16 mm on the  
other. I put the 20mm one on the fixed end before the tab and the 16mm  
one slips over the threaded end before the nut. As the washers can't  
move on the axle & are both central to centre point of it I now align  
by measuring from the outside edge of the washer to the back of the  
swingarm with a steel rule. If that's the same both sides then I know  
the centre of the axles the same. Don't know if that helps but it  
works for me.
