Pulling To Left

Hi all,

Just purchased my first Speed Triple.

It's a 2007 model having covered 25000 miles.

Generally I love the bike, it looks fantastic and is great fun to ride. The only issue I'm having is that if I take my hands off the bars, the bike seems to want to veer to the left, it's only slight but requires me to lean over to the right to keep it going straight.

I've experienced this on bikes before but it's normally the rear wheel alignment that needs adjusting but obviously this isn't the case for a SSSA.

Is this normal for a Speedy with all the weight of the swingarm being on the left? Or should it run straight and true hands free?

Any help would be very much appreciated as I don't know anyone with one of these bikes so don't know who to ask and if there is something wrong with it, I'd like to take it back to the dealer ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

 

Thanks for all the advice chaps.

I initially thought it might be the tyres so I had those replaced and it made no difference unfortunately.
I'll try the flat car park thing but can't really see that being the issue as I've taken my hands off the bars on other bikes on cambered roads without this problem.

I can't really think what would cause this other than something being bent which really would be a shame as apart from this the bike is great!
