Default Fork-en-Ay

So I forgot to add, this, bit it warrents a new thread: When I pitched the bike in Michigan, I ever so slightly tweaked the forks. Eyeballing it Either the left fork is pushed back or the right is pushed forward 1/16th of an inch or so at the end where the shock housing ends (where the white guard starts). When I am driving down the road, the (new straight) bars are angled ever so slightly like I am turning right)..seems opposite symptom the to way the forks are... Anyway, any word of advice to tweak them back would be appreciated.

Is it handle bars, forks, triple clamp, front wheel cocked,frame you have to figure that out first.

I believe you can just loosen up the triple clamp and straighten the handle bars.

Good Idea, Now that I think about it, the triple is probably tweaked and is likely the culprit. Will loosen that and see if we can adjust it....
I know the bars are good, since they are new .... The wheel is fine too.
