I have the same problem on my '12 50. Wonder how to correct it, as its non adjusting.

Think the only thing you can do is not overload them and get new shocks on the 50's and 90's. According to the Scrambler, Sportsman, and Predator 50 & 90 manual there are no adjustments.
If one side is lisping more than the other change the front shocks from side to side and see if the problem follows. Almost wish they would use front shocks like the rear where you can adjust the springs.
The other thing I notice on one we had when kids rode it you could see the top of the wheels tilting in, when they get off if you pick up the front end and set it back down they were perfectly aligned. So it appears to be the load on the shocks that causes it.

My 2012 outlaw 90 does the same thing.The top of the wheels go in so bad that it looks broken.My front shocks do adjust but that don't help at all.

Mine will do this also. When my 53 lb boy is on it its bad though. It's bad enough that my wife who knows nothing about quads asked why his wheeles were bent already. I know that it probably won't hurt anything, but this is very aggravating to me that they come this way. Of corse at the dealership it looked fine.

Whats funny is it doesn't happen on all of them, just some. Just out of curiosity when you they are tilted in and you pick up the front end and set it down do they look back to normal?

Yep. Even with him on it. When they are tilted in, if I pick up the front end and set it back down they look fine. As soon as he takes off... Look bent.

Its gotta be the shocks. Would love to swap shocks from a good one to a bad one to confirm but I don't have any right now with the problem.

Well, if it's not this way on all of them then my concerns just changed to a problem. My dealer is a member of this board, so let's see what they think it is. I'm sure they will come through, as they are the best dealership I've ever delt with. I'll keep the thread posted to what I find out.

Yep my son's does the same thing. I wonder if the 90 models shocks will fit the 50. If so im sure the springs rates are a little stiffer and would correct the problem. Just a thought...
