Ummm.. sorry guys .. but road crown on the right side of the bike? You are located in the states correct so you do travel on the right side of the road cause road crown wear to be on the left.. just stating the obvious.. anyway, I have the wear more on my right as well.. come to find out the Metzeler is actually close to 315 then 300 and if you align it perfectly it will rub the belt. So my next set will be factory avon's that are actually about 304mm.. n e ways.. good luck.. take ur axle covers off the rear and measure the distance from front to back on each side..
So I was wrong on the wear side of my bike due to it dog legging as Ker said.. lol.. my tire wears more on the left due to it being cocked to left to adjust for the tire width.. 20161213_160637.jpg

Think a little of what your saying, there's no way it can wear like that if the front of the tire is angled to the left to miss the belt.:nonod:
It would scrub the right side of the tire like I you initially indicated:yesnod:
No senor, angled to the left to avoid the belt on the right which is initially causing the premature wear on the left..
