Default 2006 Eiger Tire Leaning

I Have a 2006 suzuki Eiger, the tire Leans badly in at the top and ive checked the ball joints and replaced the wheel bearings and seal on both sides and nothing appears to be bent.. does anyone know of anything that could be causing this? ive been told the tie rod could need adjusted but that only adjusts the tow from side to side!!

I had this problem on a Honda 350 and can’t quite remember what caused it. Make sure the Quad is “sat” right, i.e. tyres all the same pressure and same size both sides. Check rear swinging arm bushes. Check the front springs are the same length, with the weight of the quad on them. If all is correct, I think the problem was the top A arm bent near the ball joint, it’s bad to tell as it is set at an angle anyway. I remember a fairly small tweak on something resulted in a big change to the “king pin inclination.”
