I have 2001 Banshee +2+1 a-arms w/works triple rates,revalved rear w/eibach spring. I've had these on my bike going on two years. My bike on the last trip out was a real bear to handle. It was really biting hard left to right,or when i would hit a big dune like a berm when powering out of the turn front end would not want to turn straight(plows). I'm getting a little frustrated because it rode like a Cadillac before. The Alignment is correct, camber etc..all seem good. I did notice Where the tie-rods mount to the steering stem that little tab is tweeked. This I know is the problem ,but how do I go about fixing and who can I take it to to reinforce or beef the tab up so I don't tweek it again. it seems that with this tab tweeked, it lets the inside turning tire turn just a hair to far and bites in to the sand, basically oversteering. Anyone?

There was a topic about steering stabilizers a while ago. Everyone was saying bigger arms need this stabilizer.
SHOCKER
I know when you go +1 forward on the 250r's is good, but people told me when you go +1 forward on the my Z400 it will push and not want to turn, im not sure but this +1 forward might of messed you up, im not exactly sure if its true about the banshees

You could easily fix that problem if you went out and bought one of these...

I must admit, that bike rides awesome (Banshee). I'll ask Rod about it tonight, he might have an idea what to do.
