<![CDATA[Speedo gear missing]]>Hello! My Yamaha dt 125r is missing the speedo gear. Instead of the speedo gear someone put another spacer (the same one that fits on the other side, see picture). My question is that would this affect anything with the fork/wheel alignment? I don't mind that it's missing because I use the bike for off road and I don't need the speedo but if the forks don't align correctly that's a problem. Thanks

There should be no binding in the fork since one side is just a clamp.

The bike would have a tendency to crab.

 |     <-- Front wheel
[  ]   <-- Frame
  |    <-- Rear wheel

Figure: Exaggerated misalignment

I'd be inclined to measure/check and if necessary locate and reinstall the speedo drive.
