Is this an optical illusion, or isn't the rear wheel leaning to right? I can't feel anything odd when riding, tho' but I should right? What on earth can cause that? I changed the driveshaft last winter but I don't remember anything was left missing or anything. Whaaaat gives??

Maybe its the bike leaning left?
It seems that bmw don`t seem to think that front and rear wheel sneed to be directly behind each other, quite a few k`s and r`s have front and rear wheels out of line, depends on which rear wheel they are using

Sure looks bent to me.
Should check a few things. First, look for runout relative to the frame when turning it on the centerstand (does the rim move closer and further from the frame while rotating the wheel). Next, put a level on the wheel, and see if you can make the wheel square with the ground.

when my motobricks look like that there is generally a puddle of mobil 1 gear oil under the tior and my spare final drive is sitting on the ground next the my tool roll...

It does roll just evenly, the distance between the rim and the frame don't change.i think the whole assembly should be tilted in order to make it look like that. Johnny, you mean the innards of my final drive are gone? Shouldn't it make some kinda noide then too??

I knew I'd seen this before somewhere:

Thanks, Howard64180! Looks like my swing arm is bent😟 This might be the case since when the driveshaft broke, it scratched the inside of the arm quite badly. It got so hot that even the speedo cable outside melted.
Well, shopping for a swing arm then. Anyone? Preferably Europe!
