Weird prob, Sportman want to turn right when 1st started.

Thought I'd post this in case somebody has run into something similar before. Of course I will be checking Hub fluid etc,.. but cant remember any of my other Sportsmans doing this before.
ONLY for the first 100 yards of driving, you have to Hang on really tight to the steering or it'll do circles to the right like a Shriners motorcycle!
As soon as it warms up and has been run for a bit I dont notice ANY pulling of any kind, I can 1-hand it down the trails at speed with no probs...
Any similar stories/fixes?
TIA for the replies.

Well if you would have said left, I would have guessed it was a Earnhardt Jr limited edition. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I have a similar problem but mine turns to the left. I had a dealer look at it last spring because I think it is the brake caliber. When I got it back it was fine for a few weeks and then went right back to the way it was. I try not to lock the brake when it is parked for a long peroid of time and that seems to help.

Yea, I had that happen on mine several times before. I found if it is doing it I stop and work the brake lever a few times and it goes away. I think the problem is in the braking system, maybe expanding fluid or something along them lines. Give it a try and let us know if it helps.
