After looking at the pipe relation to the front wheel, I am wondering if anyone has had there front wheel hit the pipe on compression? If so, is there a fix?

I run the stock pipe, and have the "X" chassis which has a steeper steering angle....
I've "clanked" my forks a few times.... tire has never contacted the pipe...

Hit Milestone today. Chased a few bugs, straightened them out, all went good. Yes, I have marks on the front of the pipe. Did not feel it but knowing they're there bugs me a little.
