Are the cans blowing hot exhaust directly on the rear tire?  That gives a new meaning to "tire warmer".

I wasn't there/haven't seen the bike in person, so I can't say with 100% certainty, but...

It appears to have a non-stock, longer swingarm on it.

Leading me to believe I have a pretty good idea why it looks like the rear wheel is off center.

I would assume the wheel is centered. It just looks a little off from this angle.

I can't tell for sure, but I'm thinking it looks off-center because it has a stupid wide-ass rear wheel and tire.

It's centered, but from that view all you can really see is that the tire and wheel come out farther on the right side than they should, making it look like it's hanging off to that side.

The second bike belongs to some guy in my area.  I'm not a fan of the rear tire/swingarm but the gauges are sick.
