ABSTRACT:
A manually operated alignment tool for the wheels of a motorcycle which, on making a two point contact with the tire sidewall of each wheel, assures alignment of the wheels. The tool includes a bar and, when necessary, a spacer disposed at one end of the bar and of a width equal to one-half of the difference in width between the front and rear tires. The tool is positioned to have the bar contact the sidewalls along a common side of the area and front tires or, if used, the spacer is brought into contact with the sidewall of the front tire. In the event all four points of contact are not made and indicative of misaligned wheels, the rear wheel axle if pivoted fore and aft until all four contact points are achieved.
