Hey guys, I have a Yamaha 650 Custom and my handlebars are twerked a little. This happened after I found my bike laying down in my schools parking lot D: So I am a little pissed but what ever. I cannot find where the problem is though.

Here is what it looks like. I checked the bars and they are fine, I just can't figure if its the risers or the crown. It appears to be the crown but after removing the bar and risers the crown appeared fine but every time I put it back it's crooked.

It's so frustrating lol!

it does look look like tripple tree is bent wonky but it souldnt be like that from just laying it down :confused:
 
That's what I don't get :/ I took it apart and it all looked fine. I didn't do any extreme examination or anything but from by looking at the parts taken apart it all appeared fine.
 
Nope. I'm going to take the entire thing apart tomorrow maybe to do a more thorough examination. The crown may just need to be replaced which will set me back a ~$120 or so.

I still think its weird being that bent out of shape, from just being lay on its side. Let me know if you find anything weird in your examination of the front end

The risers for the 650 from what I have been reading are cheap and are easily bent. So I hope they are the risers because I can get new ones for about ~$80 for the two. At least that was the only damage done, well that and a little scratch on the tank which I am getting repainted anyways.

ahhh well thats good (of sorts), just get them replaced mate luckly it wasn't anything too expensive eh :)
 
I got it fixed. I don't know how I missed it before but one of the risers was not sitting in straight. Just loosened up an allen bolt and gave it a good bump and it's back to normal haha. Saved me a riser lol.
