No argument, Lee.  I said it only because it's been my experience.  I really wonder if some bikes have a bit of an offset from one sprocket to the other that might cause this.  The only variable I know about is the assembly that the rear sprocket mounts to and I can't see how that could change.  Seems once you tighten the rear axle, the cush drive can't move at all.  Difference in the spacer on the left side of the rear wheel assembly?

Seems reasonable to assume something is pulling the front sprocket in one direction or the other.  If it's not alignment of the rear wheel, what could it be?  Anyone??

The rear wheel is not as easy to align on the ST line as it is on other Ducatis. Even after putting a set of the
rear plates on from LT I had both marks even but was off on alignment. I clamped a piece of stock to the rear
and it showed that it was off with the front.
 Being on with the pointers on the plates is not 100%. Those Laser alignment tools are great.
