My 2018 P1000-5 is eating the inside tread on both front tires. Just over 400 miles total on this thing. Is there any camber adjustment? I called the Honda dealer and was told there’s nothing they can do. He said bring it in and he’ll turn the tires around so the tread is on the inside. Really?!

Let @JTW play with the camel while you adjust your toe in and you will be good to go.

I had the exact same problem when I had my pioneer 1000-3. Happened whenever I rode asphalt, and had a fair amount of gear/weight in the bed. It would unload the front suspension a little bit, and due to the design of most offroad suspension, you will experience wear pattern like this. One of the best things I did, was swap out the cheap original tires to a set of tusk terrabite tires 27x11x12 and 27x9x12 radials. They handle very well on the streets, and feel great on hard packed, gravel, and even loose dirt too. A couple months ago I racked up about 40 miles on asphalt, including driving up mount Washington, and the tires in the front showed absolutely no uneven wear on the inside whatsoever!
That's the best recommendation I can make, hope it works for you too man.

I bought satv arms, light truck tires, and had mine machine aligned. Perfect wear pattern now.
