The handlebars on my RTX are slightly turned to the right while going straight. Is there an adjustment for this or does is require doing a total alignment. I did not notice it until the last ride (sled has 500mi) Should i look for other bent parts??? Never noticed it before.



:yam:
 

ok, my attack is much the same, found it easier to twist my head to counter the bars....
 
well it really wasn't a prob till i noticed it. now it will drive me insane. i guess i will tear into it when i do my oil change and align the front end while i'm at it.
 
Hi guys, been there done that. My Attak was to the left. Here is an easy fix. That nice aluminum riser when loosend up has a fair amount of slop. Just remove the bar pad and loosen up the handle bar clamp bolts a bit. Just enough to twist the bars back and forth with light pressure. Tighten the bolts when it looks streight. Took me 2 trys. Went a little far to the right the first time. :D
 
sounds simple enough to me, no sense of making a project out of it. However i will check for bent parts first.
