screwed alignment

[facio57]

hey everyone, i am getting ready to sell my bike, but my alignment is off, and i hate to sell it that way. i have to keep the handlebars turned abit to the left to go straight. the handlebars aren't bent. the wear on the back tire is a bit more on the left side of the tire than the right, so i know something is up more than just the handlebars. i tried loosening the yokes holding the forks, but they didn't right themselves. this problem happened after i lowsided onto my left side. any other ideas? thanks everyone!

it almost sounds like you have bent the chassis. i doubt that you would have on the gs though,
check you back wheel adjusters, and adjust till its straight.
the front could be a bent trible clamp you may be able to adjust everything back straight again, by loosening all the fork clamp bolts and holding the front wheel (you might need a mate for this) twist the bars till they are straightish (just like what you use to do on your bmx when you crashed that) hopefully you'll get everything back to normal again. let us know.
the other guys on here will have more ideas no doubt
goodluck

Everything hmmmnz said. You'll also need to loosen the fork brace while you wrench everything back in place.

And, loosen the axle clamp bolt on the right fork leg.  After you get everything else straight and tightened up, push down on the forks without using the brake; this further helps align the forks.  And, tighten up the axle clamp bolt.

When you loosened the fork bolts did you loosen the bolts holding the metal plate above the mudguard. You need to do this to move the forks.
