Default A Couple questions for a newbie

I have always rode an Indian but just traded my 03 Spirit for an 02 Ultra. I have a couple questions. What does the air gauge on the dash monitor? Also my fairing seems to be ever so slightly turned to the right while going straight down the road, is there some adjustments that can be made or are the forks twisted? Bike does not appear to have been dropped or down.

Air temp is ambient air temp and are usually way off. HD has an oil temp gauge kit to replace it if you like. Not sure on the fairing but I'd check the support brackets under the outer fairing (2 horizontal & 2 vertical). Congrats on the bike & welcome to the forums!

When you say that the fairing is off, are gauging that by the handle bars? my 08' seemed slightly off but I think that a full alignment would have taken care of it.

While going down the freeway the bike is tracking straight but the fairing looks like it is going to the right. It's very minor but I am a bit ****.
