Had this problem once. I took the track completely off and checked to see if there were any links that were binding. I ran them slowly through my hand and was amazed how many did not move freely. It seems that there was flash from manufacturing that wasn't completely removed. I disconnected the tight links and cleaned them up with a small file, reassembled, and it solved my problem.

Be forewarned, once you start looking for the flash you can find it on almost every link.

Hope this helps and good luck solving your problem

Hi You should be able to pull the tracks pull the right track then the left if its harder to pull you need to look at why ,gearbox could be binding or tracks , I would go gearbox first ,take tracks off and put the sprocket back on and try and turn if the right is free and left is tight you have the problem sorted .

regards pete

p.s. you could also try putting the left track on the right side see if there is a difference

Is it all fixed now and what was the cause?

no mate not fixed..having a break from this one..I'm peeved with it the left sprocket was ever so slightly tighter ..that's about it, I'm doubting it could make it veer so left..
