Is it a myth?

Here's info on offset F-R on a Norton w/the Isolastic suspension: http://www.nortonownersclub.org/support/technical-support-commando/wheel-offsets

Not as uncommon as one would think.

Thats interesting. I guess i never really thought twice about wheels not being in line with eachother on bike.

All I can say is that if the offset caused an issue every Vmax ever made would have a wobble and they don't.
I've had my 2000 since 2001 and the only time I ever experienced a wobble was when I had a cupped front tire.
I replaced it and the wobble disappeared.
But I also adjust my steering had bearings and check the wheel and swingarm bearings every year.
So I'd say proper maintenance plays a Big part in keeping the Vmax stable.

I wasnt implying that thats what caused it because your right if thats what it was every single vmax would do it. I started to thread to talk about the back tire being off set and it turned into a wobble thread. Lol but all is good.

And yes i agree keeping up with proper maintenance will keep any bike up to par like it should be.
