previous (and original) owner (he was meticulous about telling me everything about it and he would have mentioned if something happened that could have bent it), and knowing how well I take care of it, and the fact that I am the only driver of it, I seriously doubt it. Plus, Z1 knew exactly what I was talking about when I called, and they said it hits on some, but not on others. So I really dont think that is the issue. Is there any way to check if it is bent?
