Hi Guys, I currently have a problem with my rear tyre wearing on the right hand side, to me it looks like it may be rubbing on the bracket on the inside back guard? Any thoughts on this? my wife and i have a combined weight of 255kg so am i expecting too much. Really need some advice on this. Currently riding a R3 Classic 2006 model.

That much weight is a bit much. If you have stock rear springs may I suggest you change you shocks to something in the aftermarket and specify either your riding weight or at least get the heavy duty springs.
