No matter whether it’s a road or track bike, perfect chassis alignment and intact geometry is a must. RapidLaser is your professional check-up tool, which will shed light on improper bike set-up and hidden frame and chassis damage/deviation.
One of the biggest advantages of the RapidLaser is that you can diagnose the bike without removing the fairings/bodywork, which is a real time-robbing exercise.
RapidLaser is a must have kit for workshops, race teams, used bike dealers and used spare part handlers/breakers as well. Even for individuals aiming for a perfectly aligned bike!
Improper alignment of the rear wheel results in excessive wear on the sprocket teeth, drive chain, wheel bearings, cush-drive, axle and tire.
Bent/twisted swingarm check
Just like a misaligned rear wheel, a bent/twisted swingarm results in a
poorly handling motorcycle, uneven tire and drive-train (chain and rear
sprocket) wear but in a more serious and dangerous way. For safety
reasons, motorcycles with a bent/twisted swingarm shouldn’t be used
until the problem has been rectified. If the bike hasn’t been dropped,
check the swingarm bearings first.
Bent/twisted headstock check
Motorcycle frames are prone to bending/twisting in case of a crash, even
more in a frontal collision. Not only will the smallest deviation
compared to the factory state render the bike useless, it is very
dangerous for street and track riding and must be taken care of
immediately. A frame damage is considered as one of the most serious
damage to a motorcycle.
Bent/twisted fork leg check
Even a simple, slow-speed low-side can easily bend the fork tubes and
lower triple clamp in one go, so this is another crucial area of bike
checks, yet again, this has a very serious impact on handling.
Wheelbase measurement
An altered wheelbase can be a tell-tale sign of a frontal collision too,
as a shorter wheelbase occurs only when the steering angle (rake) gets
steeper (in case of a stock geometry bike). In order to carry out a
successful wheelbase measurement, you need to have the bike in a factory
condition regarding the drive-train: new, oem spec chain (including
chain slack), sprockets front and rear, as the values given from the
manufacturers only apply in stock trim.
