Default 450er question

I took my quad on the road to get from my friends house to where we ride. As soon as i would get going in about 2nd or 3rd gear the front tires would seem to bounce. It was a very uncomfortable feeling. Does anyone know what could cause the front tires to bounce like this on the assfault? Its to snowy to get the quad going fast on the dirt to see if it still happens. Anything will help. Also suspension is set standard not to soft or to hard. Thanks

Yea check what the others said and if not then I would say that you should take a look at your steering(tierods and steering stem) to make sure there isn't any play...also make sure both of your tires are nice and tight.

I have a tiny bend in my a arm from a little accident I had. I had the tie rods replaced by my brother in law who is a mechanic. Do you think the little bend in the a arm could cause the rough ride?
