Default Forks crooked

Iv'e noticed my forks are not centered(even more so with the new bars)at first i thought it was just one of my four eyes messing with me when i had the stock bars on.It's really noticeable now and it actually pulls to the side its cocked towards(left)when i let go of the bars(dont try this,i just wanted to see how bad it was).
HD should fix this with no charge since i have never touched the fork mounting nut right?

G, put down the Crown Royal, go to bed, and look at in the morning. How many sets of forks do you see, bro?[sm=smokin.gif][sm=smiley23.gif][sm=smiley16.gif][sm=partyparty.gif]

G Money,

It's ok your eyes are perfectly fine. You share the same problem as a lot of others.
