How do you adjust the toe settings on a 400EX, and what should the settings be at?
Right now my left front tire is straight ahead and the right is toed in. Im sure there is some degree that the wheels are toed in to aid in the steering so now Im not sure which wheel needs to be adjusted.

measure up from the ground 8.5 inches on the inside front and back of each front tire. 8.5" is about half way up the tire. put your bars straight then measire from the front pivot bolt of your lower a arm to one of your front brake caliper bolts. use the same bolt location on the other side, use your tie rod and make both sides the same measurment. then check your bars again and make sure the didnt move, and then measure the distance between the 2 marks on the front of the tires that you made 8.5" up from the ground.do the same with the rear marks and you should make your front marks about 1/4 to 1/2 closer the then the rear, that will give you your proper toe in.dont forget to tighten the jamb nuts on the tie rods when your done
