Is it just me or anyone else's pipes splayed out differently from each other ? Lookin' from the back, my Thunderbike pipes are 3 3/4"(right) and 5 1/4"(left) from a rim shoulder. That's a pretty good discrepancy. I hate to put my boot on the left pipe and move it in that far (1 1/2") It ain't been that way for long. Just wonderin'. Maybe I've been poppin' too much lately. Or that groundhog I ate. I dunno.

The front mount for the pipes has some give in it in effect an adjustment. Wendy had the pipes on her bike like that and it was very easy to put back. (she had laid it down when she first got it.)

Could be the wheel, likey you need to adjust them like the pros do. Push the one in as far as ya can if they are still not right pull the other one out.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

It ain't the wheel. The above pro adjustment method will work, however.
