My bike pulls to the right a little
does anyone know how to fix this. I think you have to adjust the A-arms right??

If unequal tire pressure isn't the problem, check the entire alignment specs; caster, cammber, toe-in, bent A-frame, or worst case, bent frame. The last one is what I had to deal with after a head- on with a dirt bike...mucho dinero!

check what they've said then point your bars straight then get in front of your quad and see if your tires are straight.....if they aren't you can adjust this with the tierods.....just a guess.

Your problem is most likely the tire alignment, which is easy to set. Look under the topic Tire Alignment for the procedure.

Hit the button on the handle bar which puts it in 2wd mode it makes a major steering improvment.

Ok I put my bars as strait as possible and can see that the left tire (right when you are sitting on it)is pointing a little farther out than the other one. So now what do I do

hondapride: what do you ride? well anyways its pretty easy just loosen the two nuts that lock down on your tie rod ends......then just turn the tie rod and it should pull the wheel in (or out whichever way you turn it).....get in front of the quad and try to make both of them straight as possible.....then just tighten the nut back down on the tierod end..then take it for a ride....thats about it..... later
