Look for the signs of bent a-arms, worn bushings or damaged bearings. Is there any play in the wheel?

The bushings hold the a-arms to the frame - If there is movement in the a-arm, the bushing is worn. The bearings are in the carrier and hub - You will need to pull the wheel and look for looseness of parts. I don't remember any adjustment for camber in the rear setup. Was it always this way?

well ive only had the joyner 4 weeks, so it has all the time ive had it.i took the wheel off and all looked fine,nothing felt loose.im finking something must be bent cos the negative camber is quite alot.could it have the wrong shaft carrier on it?cos the ryt wheel shaft carrier is slightly different

Was this a new buggy or did you buy it used? If it is new, The dealer should be addressing these problems you have found. If used, you never know how the previous owner treated it or what repairs he performed. The left and right carriers are a mirror image of each other - I no longer have my 650, so I am going from memory and the parts diagram. Perhaps a current 650 owner will jump in to help.
