My 7 yr old little girl has a 2004 ( 2 months old and a hand full of rides on it), Yesterday we all went out riding and she took mom out for a lap... she came back in saying it was not turning very well so I took it for a test drive..... well, on the first turn you could see the poroblem... the left front wheel was not turning in the direction of the right wheel... So upon looking at it the right wheel is fine but you can turn the left through out it's range with out the bars moving... she did not wreck and does not take any jumps at all... anyone else had this problem with their eton? I am going to tear it apart tonight and see what's going on. Thanks Jeff.

 

Make sure the bolt is tight under the spindle.

 

Found the problem! the weld broke on the shaft going up through the pitman arm next to the wheel....... sucks but I can weld it up tomorrow as It might take longer if I took it to the dealer... check those welds! Jeff.

 

Go with a quadzuki(LT 80) only the swingarm/tranny breaks on them LOL.

 

Yeah [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I welded it up yesterday and her bike is as good as new....until the next trip out. Jeff.
