Hey guys - I have an LT230 that I recently inherited. My experience with quads is pretty limited but I've had it out a few times and am enjoying it.

It's been running fine and I had it out for a few hours last weekend, didn't hit anything hard and it was tracking straight the whole time. I put it away for the week and didn't touch it till I replaced my front brake master cylinder yesterday (still can't get pressure so thinking there may be a leak somehwere in the line but that's besides the point) and when I threw the wheels back on and rode it down the street i noticed it's pulling very hard to the right. The strange thing about it is it seems to not pull at all and is unresponsive to steering input when i'm hard on the gas and the front suspension is unloaded. As soon as i let off the throttle, it'll start to pull again.

I do not think it's the alignment because it is such a hard pull and came out of nowhere. The wheels look pretty much aligned when eyeing it up too. Tire pressure is also equal on both sides.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Alex

 

the caliper may not releasing all the way. or there is play in the axle bearings or swing arm bearing.

 

It's not the caliper as I lifted the front end and the right wheel spins smoothly. I'll check the others. Thanks.

 

Air pressure even across the tires?

 

Tire pressure is even on both sides.
