The dr side measurement is 22 1/8" the pass side measurement is 21 7/8". In other words the rear tire is cocked to the dr side...would that not create a right hand push??



Assuming dr is left side and pass is right, yes, you should get a push to the right. Not sure how much though. Have to adjust and check again.

Came accross a post on the other Triumph site regarding frame straightening by Englishwombat. Good way to check the frame to see if it is true: http://www.triumphrat.net/showthread.php?t=64769

"I had a front end smash that wasn't my fault in September. As it wasn't my fault, I had the estimate done and that said I needed new yokes, a new frame, as well as new forks, wheel etc.

I wasn't convinced, and so set to replacing the forks I got hold of, and getting a TBS wheel and brake upgrade kit. (I had got a pair of Speedie forks... )

This is how we (my dad and I) found whether the frame was bent.

Use a jack to get the back wheel vertically level - put a spirit level on the brake disk. Under the bottom yoke is a hole filled with a bung. Take the bung out and get a pole to fit in the hole - it goes up through the headstock of the frame. If the pole also shows as vertically level then there should be no problems with the frame."

Can't hurt to check.
