Fork Trouble???

[Scooter]

So I'm in the process of piecing my bike back together and I ran into a problem. I put my new front wheel on and when I put the triple tree what seemed straight the front wheel was cocked a bit. The forks appear straight and I never even thought that they might be bent. Is there something else that could be going on here? If the forks are bent, I have never seen forks that look like this and are actually bent.

assuming the bike hasnt been in a collision, you should be able to straighten her up by putting your front wheel between your knees and give the bars a tweek, have the yolk bolts slack also.
just a matter of lineing it all up.
good luck

It did go down on its side, that's why I'm worried

give it a go . nothing to loose they can be a bit of a mare to line up if they havent been dropped. good luck
