I Just bought my quad (Raptor 350)about 2 weeks ago, this weekend i went out with a couple of buddies to Occotillo Wells in Southern California. I was riding maybe 40 mph and hit a small dip that I did not see,it lifted my front end off the ground and when my two front wheels came back down, my front left wheel landed exactly on a small mound of dirt. in a split secondI thought, OK this can go 2 ways.

1) I might be able to ride right over it
2) Brace for impact because this is gonna hurt

unfortunately for me , my 2nd thought was confirmed.
As soon as my front left wheel hit the mound of dirt, it lifted the whole left side of my quad and i was thrown off.
the quad landed on the front right wheel and poped the wheel.
I towed my quad with a buddies, and took it to the repair shop near camp.
the guy told me the wheel was fine it just came off the bead.
so he put some air in it and fixed it.no problem right?
wrong.
now my if my bars are perfectly straight , both front wheels are slightly angled
and its not riding the same.
I dont know much about quads yet, but if anyone can give me some advice on how to correct this proplem without having to take it to the repair shop, i would really appreciate it.
the repair shop is my last resort.
thanks.

 

Probably the alignment is out (you bent a tie rod or something like that). All you can do is buy a service manual and go through the alignment procedure and check out all the parts for damage, and hope that solves your problem.

 

you are most likely screwed souns like a bent frame
