First I realize this is a dealer issue. That being said I am sure most dealers don't bother to check this. With your skis straight make sure your handlebars are not turned to the right a little. My Dad's, Mine and the one the dealer had on the floor were all off to the right a little. If yours are I would take it back to the dealer and have them fix it. Doing it yourself will not help alert them to the issue. Toe out was set correct but the bars were not aligned straight with the skis.

I made this comment on FB and within a few min received several replies from other people with the same issue.
 
my bars were straight but too far to the left, not centered, 3/4 of an inch? and riser was way too far forward. not a mtn sled. center shock was loose, went up 2 turns. 2 turns up on headlight. got 12 days off. will be checking all these other issues good. turbo nordlocks on, see if it spins, coolant level, belt, heat shield, clamp, did i miss any? hope the unt bracket comes for the linq. 55f /rain here monday...gonna lose 2 more weeks it looks like.
 
my bars were to the right....dealer is 2 hrs each way away
