I guess he's trying to say either his wheel & as mounted tire is out of round (radially) in some really significant fashion  or his tire itself wasn't made/cured correctly and it simply wore in an very uneven fashion as rotated.

Or he's saying something else entirely, in which case he should try explaining it again.

You might be right Justin. It's odd that there is some grinding noise coming from my drum when I roll my bike, but it is on one side because I get free rotation until i hit that patch. An idea what ot coud be? I just got a stand, so im going to take it apart tomorrow.

Oldfeller, yes my rear tire was not wearing evenly radially. They guys at the shop i took it to didn't see any problems  with the truing of my wheel. One thought  i was doing  burnouts on it. When I troubleshoot the rear brake grinding tomorrow, ill check the truness with zipties attached to the swingarm.

I just noticed that the return spring on the rear drum arm was missing. Luckily i found the part. This is probably what has been eating rear tire up unevenly.
