New tires but with a bit of an issue

[alienator21]

My 2021 GSX S1000F now needs new tires, but i noticed the left side is wearing faster than the right, which seems odd since i'm more comfortable turning right. The axle notches are slightly off, so i'll fix that, but could the chain on the left or something else be causing this?? The bike's never been dropped and rides straight just wondering if there's something i should check.

Sounds like a good call to get the axle alignment sorted first, it can definitely cause uneven wear and besides that, double check your chain tension and sprocket condition because uneven tension or a worn sprocket can pull the bike slightly and speed up wear on one side

Appreciate that. I'll double check the chain and sprockets along with the alignment. Did you notice the same kind of wear pattern before fixing yours, or was it more subtle in your case?
