Default Front wheels offset to the right

I was checking my front wheel alignment on my near new '07 SP 500. After placing the string along the side of the tires I find that the string touched the right front wheel and the left front wheel is inset 7/8". Is this normal or is something wrong?

The machine only has 15hrs on it. The machine has been treated with tender love and care.

if you check the manual i think it says its suppose to be about 1/2". have the dealer line it up if its still under warranty. imo.

The manual states the tow out should be 1/8" to 1/4". However this is not the problem. The frontend is offset 7/8" to the right. The right front wheel touches the alignment string while the left wheel lacks 7/8" touching the string. Something is causing the frontend off center. I'm sure this is not normal.

No the quad is not under warranty.
