Did a little work to the quad today.

Swapped the tires onto the black one
Save the frame swap for this winter
I also think I may have fixed the bump steer issue. Will have report next time we ride (probably Saturday)

Here she is with the new tires


The steering links on the front when I got it were almost perfectly level horizontal.
Kinda seen here


The way the rod end is mounted makes it this way.
I swapped the rod end on the steering shaft from bottom of the mount to the top


And now the link is on almost the same angle of the A arms wich I think is how it's supposed to be


I've ridden it around the yard but nowhere really to test for bump steer so that will need to wait

Rear tire after the swap was rubbing the muffler but that was an easy fix just bent the muffler closer to centre using brute force


That's all for now. I will let you know if the steering issue has been fixed after next ride

Thanks

Dave
