Hey guys, So I dropped my bike pretty hard a couple days ago and after taking it out today I realized my front wheel doesn't seem to be straight relative to the front fender. I just put the new tire on the day of dropping it so is it possible that there is just a piece missing causing it to be cocked or did I bend something? The bike fell on the left side and the tire is facing that direction now.
It looks like this

 

Don't align the bike based on the front fender. Use true north.

 

If you are really not missing a spacer...
Maybe the solution should be a sticky?
You twisted the forks in the triple trees. Now, don't freak out! The solution is to loosen the bottom clamp bolts and straighten the wheel, then re-tighten(with a torque wrench).
If it were really bad you would notice the handlebars would not be straight.
The first time it happened to me was an off-road crash...I got up, dusted myself off, picked the bike up and tried to ride off...except that I rode right off the trail? It was then I noticed the wheel direction did not match the handlebars at all.

 

When riding down the road I noticed my handle bars weren't straight relative to me moving straight, I was outside studying how the forks mounted to the steering and realized they just were clamped on by 3 bolts on each side, loosened up all 6 bolts, hit the wheel to the point where it felt straight, took it for a rip and now feel 10 times better haha I was having a dumb moment when I realized it and I could of figured it out without even making this post but oh well haha. The one thing I wasn't able to straighten out was my shifter, it got mangled pretty bad. New oem shifter is about $46, anyone have any aftermarket ones that are cheaper that they like? I liked the feel of my stock one but didn't know if anyone found any nice aftermarket ones.

 

eBay!!! I've seen them for $15 there.

 

but the questions are, are they any good? lol

 

Happens all the time. Stand in front of bike, hold handlebars with hands, hold wheel with knees, and twist them in opposite directions as needed to relocate the front wheel to point straight.

Don't you guys ride off-road? Same thing happened to pedal bikes when you were kids.

 

I haven't really taken the bike off-road yet because of the stock street tires, I just put the knobbies on in the past couple weeks, just waiting for it to warm up to take it out.

 

$15 - I meant genuine Kaw parts... usually off a parts bike. They have aftermarket ones as well... can't comment on the quality.
