Default Handle Bar wobble/slack?

Hey all. on my raptor, when i sit on it, i can turn the handlebars like a inch, either way befor they grab and turn the wheels. it goes in a straight line perfect, and turns each way fine, and you cant tell when your riding. I was just seeing if this is normal? if not, what needs to be adjusted/ replaced. thanks!

I think a little bit of slack is normal. Check your steering stem, tie-rods, etc. for wear if you are concerned about it.

Mine does the same thing. I've checked all the nuts and bolts, but still have a little play in the steering. I don't worry about it, since its been doing it since I bought my Raptor. It hasn't gotten any worse, so just make sure you check the nuts and bolts occasionally for loosening or wear.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
