The string measure thing only works if the wheel isn't tracking straight (skewed when seen from above). That's not what's going on here. The top of the tire is farther to the right than the contact patch. It's skewed when seen from the rear.

My money's on the whole swing arm being off somehow, at the pivot.

Has the bike ever been crashed?
