pulls left
i have an 09 streetglide and ever since it was new it has a definate pull to the left if you let go of the bars. i rode my friends 10 and it goes straight. ive adjusted the fork swing tighter and looser but the same thing. other than that this is the best dam bike i ever owned and ive been riding since 64

It is probably not aligned, but the 09s are not adjustable. Mine is slight enough that all I have to do is carry my tools etc in my right bag.

If the tire has been off or just the rear axle loosened to adj your belt it is possible that one of the cams are off the blocks that they ride on. I use a .003 feeler Gage to check that the cams are both tight up to the blocks on the swing arm after the axle nut has been torqued

Must be pretty common then. My '07 Ultra has that same pull. When I took it in for something else I asked the service guy to take a look at it. When I picked it up the tech said he didn't knotice anything unusual. I can't say that my local service department is the best, they have let me down a few times in the past, so I was not completely surprised when I heard that from the tech.
