Default ATV pulls to the left

I recently bought a 2001 TRX250 recon. The atv pulls to the left when traveling on hard surfaces. Doesn't seem to pull much off road. I checked the tire pressure. Is there a way to s=check the "front end alignment? Any other ideas???

The manuals have a procedure for checking the alignment, I don't have it in front of me, but if you put the atv on a flat surface, bars in the straight ahead position, lay a straightedge lenghthwise along the wheels from front to back, you should see the same amount of toe in on both sides. If you use a tape measure on the front wheels from the same point on each wheel at both the front and back of the axle you can set the toe in, it's something like 5/16"

with the problems Honda had with the drum brakes, it could be a brake dragging as well.
