easiest way to do it, and it should have come with instructions on how to do it as well. but what you wanna do is get a plum-bob(or just a piece of srting with a wrench or something heavy on it) and place it on the center of your rear fender(just above the wheel well opening) and let the plum bob drop till it just touches the floor. Then, using a measuring tape, measure from the center of your wheel rim to the string. and do that on both sides. Then you want to make sure that they are equal or within a few 10ths or so of each other. Hope that helps!

Undertow's method is what most of us use for that project. Make sure you recheck after a few miles to make sure everything is settled and you're still ok. It's really fun to have your rear perfectly centered.
