My 2020 RGS fairing is pointing off to the right by a small amount also. I removed the front of the fairing along with the head light assembly. There are 4 bolts behind the assembly that hold the fairing. I loosened the bolts (also loosened the lower fairing support) and moved the fairing to the left as much as I could. Maybe moved approx. 1/4 inch. Not perfect but better than it was. Rumor has it HD designed it that way for better aerodynamics.
I could hear some dealership explaining the learned from the bagger racing they were better if it was off center. Yes you are one of the lucky ones that got the post bagger racing version.
Come on what do you expect from a discount $30,000 plus motorcycle anyway.

For most of a long time riding. 90% or more of all my parts came from HD. Any work I needed came from a trusted honest dealership. I had never heard they all do it. Never had the dealership hand me a warranty line of BS.
What I could say was that never happened to mine. I had darn good luck with every one of them.
Now Have little to do with any HD dealership.
Had the 2016 RGU liquid cooled heads 52,000 when I traded it never an issue other than Lifters at 600 miles. Warranty covered no question ask.
2017 Liquid cooled heads . No real issues Lifters were shot at about 40K.
2020 RGL been good to me Lifters were bad by 12,000 HD would not warranty. But work maybe give me a discount on replacement and labor..

It hurts to see the **** that is going on. And not things truly related to COV and other stuff I can not go into in this thread.
