? BENT STEERING STEM ?
#1
went ridin.. clipped a tree,which turned the bars to the max...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] now as it sets the wheels are straight but the bars are turned to the right a lil bit. i cant tell whats bent by lookin at it but anyone know what might have bent or if theres a way to find out whats bent. sounds like a dumb question but thanks

Could be the tie rod it sounds like. You hit it withe the tire right. And are both tires turned when the bars are strait. But Id check the tie rods. You might have to take them off to look at it better. Or if they arent bent you might have to adjust the allignment

Well How did you hit the tree. Just with the tire itself. Where the tie rods connect to the steering stem...it could be tweeked or almost twisted a little bit. My steering stem was that way. The tires were strait but the bars werent. Id bet its the stem. The only way to tell is to take it off and look down it
