first..put handle bars straight forward..then..on each tie rod..loosen the large lock nut's on all 4 ends..slowly turn the tie rod itself one way..or the other..watch to see which way your tire goes..you want it to move inwards for the right side....same thing as the left tire..you can eye-ball from the front of your bike..from front to rear..and line the wheels up with your back tires..try to get both front tires to toe-in from the front of the tires..use a tape measure..measure the front center of the tire..then measure the back center of the tire..about a 1/2 shorter in the front is what your aiming for...added..one lock nut is left hand threaded..for each side !

ok thanks, let me try this..

Use tie downs from the hand grips to the footpegs in order to keep your bars straight. I believe that the toe in should be at 1/4" total, not 1/4" on each side...

Go 1/4" not 1/2".

Another thing you can do instead of measuring to center of tire is having a buddy help you... Hole a 2' - 4' level horizontally on the outside of each tire and get your measurement like that...
