My 2017 CVO did this from the first day I bought it. In my opinion I believe it's the crappy design at how Harley uses stamped steel plates to cam adjust the drive belt tension at the rear axle. You can not adjust the left and right side of the rear wheel like on most other manufacture bikes. So I think there are a lot of things that can effect the rear tire to be misaligned. Just the number of parts and number dimensional tolerances involved could make a bad alignment.
That is where I think the issue is most likely at.

I checked again over the weekend and it's there , although not real extreme. I have an appt set for the dealer to check it. It's under warranty so no biggie. My previous Street Glide was straight as an arrow. I noticed this RGS was different. The Tire wear seems normal. But it definitely leans over to the Left, then steers left to the center of the road. I'm not a free hander but, as stated, it requires pressure on the right grip to maintain a straight track... Cruise on, same effect at different speeds, seated center, feet on boards.

Like I said before, I had less than stellar satisfaction from my dealer and was basically laughed at and told they couldn't help me, so I'm very curious about your outcome.
