Default something is bent

ok, i got my warrior all done yesterday and running perfect....my dad took it down the road to make sure everything was really ok. well he came back and was like, no, u cant ride it cause something is bent and the bars are getting ripped outta my hands and pulling the bars to the right. i was suppose to be riding with some freinds right now and i'm really mad. anyways, where should i start looking for bends in a warrior? where are its weak points?

It might need a front wheel alignment. The tie-rods are adjustable.

Check the air pressure in the tires too, thatll make it pull.

First sit down on your quad and turn your handle bars as straight forward as possible, stand in front of your quad and see if your tires look like they are parrallel to each other. If they dont look like they are then you need to align it.
