Default RoadGlide bars changed, look crooked

Got the wide glide bar change done and looking at the bars, speedo housing and switch covers it looks a little off, like the right side is a little lower than the left, I removed the bars and of course they cant be as they fit in the factory clamps, I read a post awhile back about this but cant find it, anybody noticed this condition on the roadglides?

Default RE: RoadGlide bars changed, look crooked

My 06 Roadglide looks the same way. The bars are rubber mounted, so I did the old Schwinn stingray fix and put the tire against a curb and pushed to straighten it out. It worked, but dont push too hard or when you turn full locked left your bars will hit the chrome fuel filler cover.
