possible suspension problem?

We just got a Kawasaki Bayou 220 and the front tires pigeon toe in quite a bit, is this a problem or normal?

I own two and they both look that way, Like the front tires are turned in at the bottom. I would say it is normal.

ok, cause my mom is worried about it though I think it looks normal. It does make the tires wear funny though.

If you mean "pigeon toed" to be that the tires are closer together at the bottom than at the top, that's completely normal. It's due to Kawie's "wise" decision to use single "A" arms instead of double "A" arms.
