Maybe you should just post your questions. They may apply to other model years as well. And you'll save time by waiting for somebody to say "yes" and then have them waiting for your questions.

Unfortunately I tried it that way first without success. Here goes anyway. My front tire is shifted to right with makes the fender and tire not lined up. Dealer told me they are all like that. Trying to verify dealers info. Thanks

That would be great. I really appreciate it. Talked to several dealers. Some say it's normal some say it isn't. Thanks in advanced.

My '17 (ABS) is centered up.
However when I got the bike new in Sept. of '17, I noticed the fork legs were not installed evenly in the tree's. One was off by around 0.150.
I loosened everything up and set them to the same measurement and reset the front axle per the service manual. Don't assume it was put together correctly at the factory.
