Default Yamaha G1 tire out of whack

Hi everyone.

I have an issue with a front tire that points towards the left while the other is straight.There is some loose play in the steering ,other than that I cant see anything broke.

From reading through past posts here ,Im still not sure if it is a tierod ,kinpin or some other issue. Hoping some of you folks could help me identify the likely problem. Thanks-Steve

A photo would be helpful but it sounds like you need to adjust the tie rods so that you have about 1/16th" toe in on each wheel.

As far as the tires pointing in different directions, you should be able to fix that with an adjustment on the tie rods. Just like on a car. To take the play out of the steering there is an adjustment screw on the steering gear box. That will take most of the play out of it...a lot of people pack the gear box with grease instead of oil. It's seems to help, I've done it to both of my G1s.
