Bought a new 2016 rmk 155 last Feb and when I got it home noticed one spindle was tipped in at the top.Left the next day for the mountains rode it for the week and then forgot about it.Both springs on the shocks are adjusted equal.Called the dealer and they said they think there might be shims to mount between a arm and bulkhead to correct the camber.Does this sound right.

I think the right side has 2 degrees of negative camber. Don't know exactly why, straight from the factory.

It is on the throttle side.I should look at another one to see if they are all like that.
