Uneven wear on tyre

[Binteng]

Hi everyone i got a question ..

 

i recently found out that i been riding abit slant to the right while riding straight on the expressway

and the i found the problem causing this is the rear tyre wear out offcenter to the right, so the right side is smooth..

but the left side quite sharp..

 

any idea what i can do to to the tyre to make it even ?

 

Thanks everyone.

through my experience,

when you change tire, the mechanic is suppose to the balancing on the wheel after changing in the new rubber, and also when you mount back your wheel to your body frame, the tightness of the wheel to the body also matter as well.

Correct me if im wrong:)

The rear left and right shock absorber may be the problem. My scooter initially has uneven wear and tear to the rear tyre. Mechanic change new tyre to mention shock absorber faulty. Change a pair of new aboarber and now very similar to binteng's feedback.

My rear box always been loaded up with heavy tool bag that could have pre-mature worn the absorbers.

i encounter similar problem before, realised it was due to the tyre was not fitted properly during the initial replacement, do check and ensure tyres are sitted properly when you guys change tyre next time.
