I thought maybe I sit off centre on the bike, but since you guys all notice the same issue I don't feel so lop sided! Thanks for the ideas and I look forward to hearing any other comments. I'm a new forum user and have seen some great ideas already.

Something else to consider. The cams on the rear wheel adjustment only need to be out a little bit on one side over the other and you will get this same feeling thru the bars.
You will sense the bars feeling out of adjustment or a slight pull to one side, it only takes a little. Make sure each side has the cams tight up against the stops.

I had the same issue with my bike. When I changed to my T-bars they were crooked, I figured it was the bars. After loosening them up slightly, I had my son hold them in place an re-tightened them. I figured it was the rubber bushings. I probably should have replaced them but I have not had a problem with them since.

i had that on my rk. it was the handlebar clamps that werent straight in the top triple clamp. i loosened them up, straightened them out and tightened them back up. problem solved. i thought the bars were tweeked or someone hit it or something but it was an easy fix.
