The front wheel shaft of my kdx is bent. I know sometimes the front end hit hard but hard a the point to bend a front axle?
Front brake did not worked well in my last rides, they worked like they need a bleeding job. But I think I found the problem now.
Look at this little video

Dang! man must have been a pretty hard hit!
And you were still able to ride with the front axel that bent, man the KDX always manages to suprise me!

Guess I'm not the only one to bend a front axle. But mine was from hitting another rider broadside at 58+ mph.
Good thing I hit a Honda!
If I had hit another Kawi who knows what might have happened when two unstoppable objects meet.
The universe might have imploded.

Yeah! I had some hard hits but I dont recall exactly when it was... I was able to ride but , as I said, the front brake did not worked well. The axle was bent and because of that, the brake rotor was not at the good place.
