Use of rudder during flare

Hi All

I'm probably being daft... more often than not when landing there is a need to kick the aircraft straight with RIGHT rudder. Even in still air conditions.

I'm at a loss why it is always to the right. Bring the power back to idle on a katana (clockwise engine) should if anything induce yaw to the right and hence need left rudder.

Any thoughts on why this might be the case appreciated. I probably should know the answer, but stumped on this one!
