If the bars were loose and tilted to one side then more than likely the bolt accessible from the bottom of the tunnel is loose. Try it.
Is Arctic Cat Warranting adjustable (VSB) steering posts?

That was the fix on my '09 M1000. I got 3-4 full turns out of the upper two bolts. My post/bars were wicked loose.

Has anybody else bent there steering posts and got warranty for them?
Bent mine bad this weekend on my 09 M. Gonna check with dealer on warranty tommorow. They work great but seem flimsy and not very strong just my opinion. Hopefully beefed up for 2010.

Like I said earlier, I love the idea and if we can figure out how to make them work I'll keep them on my sled.[/QUOTE]
What is to figure out??? You can't compare a thrashed demo sled with a bent steering post to what your going to experiance on your personal sled.
Got 340 miles on mine so far..Best sled I ever owned.. I thought smoothdawg posted a easy fix. Also was this from the same dealer that you demo'd both the m-8 and m1000 before? Wasn't the clutching all screwed up on one because of poor dealer setup?

boy, do any of you other guys ride with any other 09's or what?
EVERY 09 I have run across aside from 1 has a VERY loose steering post. I'm not impressed.
The spots that were mentioned to righten are on every M, they ALL get a bit loose if you ride hard, but the 09 is different, if you don't see this you're riding in a haze & you should stop smoking the chronic.
My 09 broke the bulkhead without even ever leaving my hands, not sure if this is related to the post but it's happened to a few sleds around here. I've beat the piss out of my 07 & 08 and not had this problem so it seems like it might be related but not 100% sure.
