Front Wheel Alighnment- out of whack!

You have to loosen the triples, and the axle clamps. Then stand with the front tire between your legs, hand on the bars and gently tweak everything back into alignment and tighten up your triples and your axle. If you forks were bent, you would notice in a loss of smooth action.

My DR used to do that a lot before I put the pro-taper top clamps on it. I did everything that Rooster said expect I loosened the steering stem nut as your top clamp and bottom clamp are not parallel.

Are you sure that you don't have a slight bend in the bars themselves?

Hope this didn't get overlooked...
As RV6 indicates..the bars may be tweaked. .....or LOOK tweaked.

They can LOOK that way if the rubber isolation cones are tweaked. That happens all the time!! Remove the cones completely, mix 'em up and put the assy back together.

You can prevent most of this by putting a one piece top clamp on your bike. FRP has 'em. I got one from someplace else (not making them anymore I think) and it has stopped said tweaking 100%.

Note that you may have to specify if you are using your odo or not with the new top clamp. I had two choices of clamp 'depending'.

re: 'Not bent. Are new.'

I don't know what that has to do with it. All bars are straight 1/2 second before they aren't. ;)

re: noise

1. Did you properly place the spring seat on the bottom of the new spring? No seat came out? Then it's goobered at the bottom of your fork.

2. Or...#1 not being the issue...Do NOT tighten the spring retainer by holding the fork tube and wrenching the nut, but rather holding the nut STILL and rotating the fork tube.

make sure its not just the fender possibly being tweaked,giving you an illusion of bent front end parts.
