2010 M8 HCR with 850 miles. I purchased the sled a month ago and I am in the middle of getting it ready for the season. Are the gears not aligned correctly, or are they supposed to look like the picture.
M8 diamond drive gear alignment question?

I am sure it is fine the bearing upgrade is what it probably needs. If there is no metal in there your doing good....

Put the over size bearing in it. I grenaded mine last year there wasn't one piece that was usable including case and cover. I bet its because it was set up like yours.
Man.........that doesn't seem right..........I had two 2010 M8's appart and an 09' and none of them had a gear alignment that was "that" far off. They may have had a little offset.......but only a few thousandths. I am sure someone with more experience will post up here.........but that seems like too much mis-alignment / offset whatever you want to call it.

mine looked even worse than that last night w/500 miles, but you have to remember that stack of gears comes off that case! I am pretty sure I moved them off center when I removed the case. I agree that there isn't a whole lot of room for the gears to be very far off with the case closed, just push them on all the way square when you bolt it back together
