I just got a talon R and I was wondering if any one has had a problem with rear toe out? My left rear wheel has toe out while my right has toe in.
were you able to get this fixed. I've had my 2020 1000x-4 for about three months and while at the sand dunes had someone point out that my driver's rear was toe in. I measured it and it's off about two inches. It's the only one that is off. Dropped it off at the dealership today (12/28/20). The were not sure what to do with it. Kept asking if I had been hit on that corner which I had not. Also, had the driver's front axle seal leaking.

Check the link in my sig for info on leaking differential seals. On some units the nipple into the frame is plugged with adhesive, as the diff heats up and the air expands, oil gets pushed out because it can't vent to atmosphere. My 2020 was leaking at 300 miles (LF).

update on mine. Honda had it for two weeks due to the front seal and the rear tire toe in. They fixed the seal with a new seal but told me that could find nothing wrong or bent with the rear suspension. I asked about why the toe in and they told me the techs could not figure it out and their was no fix. They suggested I get adjustable radius arms but I don't see how that helps. I feel like the rear trailing arm is what is bent due to the amount of gap between the frame and arm.

Were you able to get this figured out? Mine is pretty darty and I feel like this is what is going on with it as well. They keep telling me nothing is wrong

Sorry to res an old thread, but I'm scraping for information. Mine has the EXACT same condition. Came this way brand new. How did you correct this?

Thank you!

U don’t, everything is fixed - no adjustment.

I understand that it is fixed. Mine is still out a half an inch on the driver side. What I want to know is does it need to go an alignment shop? Is that a thing with SXS? Or would adding adjustable Radius rods allow me to adjust it out.

Thanks so much.
