Kodiak front wheel bent
So my son and his buddies were out on the Kodiak on Saturday. They hit a "stump
 " and put a dent into the factory wheel so bad that the tire went flat. Does anybody know if it is worth fixing, and who can fix them? Or should I just look for a new wheel?Thanks

I had a wheel with the same type of damage, I had mine repaired at Winnipeg Wheel Works. http://www.winnipegwheelworks.com/
When it first happened I bought a pair of aftermarket wheels and went for a ride. The offset was way too different from factory and my quad handled like garbage. I returned the rims and priced out a new factory wheel. Yamaha wanted $375 for one factory rim. Winnipeg Wheel Works fixed my bent rim for around $40 and I had it back in 24 hours. When I picked it up, I couldn't even see where the damage was. They put it in a lathe and perfectly straightened it. Mine had a bend in the bead and the centre plate was twisted. So the wheel had a bad wobble. They were able to take it all out. I was very impressed. If you are sticking with factory rims, I'd just get the old one fixed. Cheers! Revrend
