I just recently noticed that the tail light on my bike isn't centered in the undertail. Mine seems to be more to the left and angled in that direction. I wasn't sure if I was just trippin but, the last few that have come into the shop have the same issue. I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this.
thanks, Eric

I have had my tail section off and you can adjust it so it is centered just try moving it by hand.

i took the 3 bolts out of the bottom of mine and it shifted over almost a half inch. it was a pain in the %$^ to get it back together. i had to have the whole tail section off to be able to push on the undertail hard enough to get it lined back up. they are definatly out of whack.

OK, I don't think mine was c0ck-eyed, I've had the tail off a half dozen times already.
There's wiggle room if you loosen stuff.
They probably get bumped around a bit in transit.

I haven't really looked on mine.....usually someone else is looking from that viewpoint!

it's prolly alright you just take the corners to fast and your eyeballs get tugged to the side from the g forces but seriously it's prolly got wonked in transit.

Mine was also off-center and "twisted" to the left from factory.

The guy who assembles the tail at the factory has a glass right eye. They look perfect to him!

I only noticed because my XBRR tail section contacts the left side and not the right.
