Look....No Hands!

When I let go of my handlebars on my '07 RK Classic, it pulls pretty hard to the left. Is that normal?

I've been looking for the answer to that question for a long time. Seems like a lot of us have the same problem but nobody has the answer.

I really think it is the clutch cable pushing the front wheel to the right and the bike naturally goes to the left. Kinda like that counter steer thing.

Mine pulls left as well and many do experience a slight lean to that side.

Mine does the same thing. Read a lot of theories on this problem, but no definite fix. It's always to the left.
