I took it in because it was pulling to the left. So the factory came and picked it up last week from the dealer. Well I recieved it back today after Easter weekend. They said that the rear wheel (rim) was off-set 2". Well it rides great now and I'm glad to have it back . I guess they said this was not the first time they had a bad wheel. I'm just glad it was not the frame or anything with the quad.

canman it probably wasnt the wheels but the tires instead even tho you had the same air pressure the out side diameter was more than likely a couple of inches different that is what i have found in my shop its hard to beleave that your dealer didnt check it before they sent it back to the factory that costed some valuable ridding time

WOW, you mean your dealer wasn't smart enough to swap the tires/wheels around to see if the problem followed????[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] That would have been the first thing I would have tried, right after checking the air pressure in each tire!!

I was kinda pissed that I lost Easter weekend ridding time. The weather was finaly nice in the 60's. Now that I got it back it's in the 30's. I'm just glad to have it back. I think you may be correct on the tire and not the rim being off 2". It sure made it pull bad though. Well can't wait to get it to the track on Sat.
