Not a whole lot you can do about bumpsteer on these quads. You can try to do a toe in a little to help but not a real fix for this problem. Even some jap bikes have this problem.

Thanks for the feed back, i had a friend over here awhile ago that is a big racer and Baja type stuff and after looking things over and understanding the bump steer issue we fixed it. I had the outer tie rod upside down, ( no info on assy. these things and the photo in the parts catalog was wrong also). So as of now it looks good.
thanks

In my opinion its probubly worth more than that. The Jetmoto has a lot of components made in Taiwan not China. From wheel bearings, axle bearings, swing arm bearings, a-arm bearings. All of the wiring harness and the electrical controls. Even the shocks are different inside compared to other knock offs. Eugene (Jetmoto pres) even specifies which workers assemble Jetmotos and pays a little more for it, just like the parts from Taiwan. All this adds up to a better product. Also those better parts will always be easy to get for a Jetmoto if you ever need them. Ive got to wonder if motorsport wholesalers will even be around in a year.

I was also going to ask if the tie rods are on right but you got that part.
