Default Handlebar Alignment 2015 Heritage FLSTC

When my front and back wheels are in line my bars are slightly off and not at 90 degrees to bike. It's not noticeable while riding just annoying and I would like to know if there is a simple way you adjust them

Are you referring to forward and back? I keep mined aligned with the front forks, just loosen the bar clamp and put them where you want them.

Try blocking the front tire against a wall and "tweaking" them in the right direction

Sometimes the rubber bushings get worn or tweaked from tie downs during trailering

I actually just googled this and lots of posts from this forum popped up.
Not to be a jerk, just trying to help, but use the search function. LOTS of material on aligning the handlebars.
