I know I can be (am) OCD, this doesn't bother me, on the other hand (sorry if this is a hijack) that exposed oil filter sure does.....

I wonder if you OCD guys all own the deluxe model. If not, does the asymmetrical exhaust on the standard, which constantly pulls it to the right, bother you at all? 
I don't have a DLX, but I'm not obsessing a bit over that one sided exhaust pulling the bike to the right, because soon I will have a single sided saddlebag on the left evening things out . No seriously! That's what I did on my '13 Scrambler with that high mount exhaust. One step ahead of you on that one... LOL. I know, I am crazy. Not sure it can be fixed either.

You know, if I had my time again, I might go into psychiatry and specialise in OCD CB owners. "Tell me ......, how long have you loved your motorcycle?". Or, "That is not an RLET. It is a symbol. It is a symbol of your deep seated insecurities". "Tell me ....., when did you become aware that those cables did not follow the lines of the bars?". "Do you feel that vibration while you talk with your mother-in-law, or only while on your CB?" Etc, etc.

Bob Newhart - Frontier Psychiatrist is a classic. "Tex, how long have youbloved your horse?", "That is not a gun ......." and so on.

I'm sure somebody will correct me if I am wrong, but I'm guessing that this is simply due to the alignment of the upper fork leg in the triple clamps which I believe can be turned with the triple clamp bolts loosened.Ghis_imp said:I agree!

Easy fix 2 ways.
1) grab a big old flat head screw driver and turn them until they line up. They turn very easily and what little adjustment it takes to line them up won't mean squat to the preload.
2) IF they were all the way in or all the way out, you could still loosen the top and bottom triple clamp bolts (1 side at a time of course) and turn the fork tube until they line up. Then retighten the top and bottom triple clamp bolts.
if it were me I'd do method #1
I've always loved Bob Newhart's sketch about Walter Raleigh.
So I went looking for the frontier psychiatrist to no avail (although Wayne and Schuster used to do a line in frontier psychiatrist gags). I did, though, find this Bob Newhart gem which made me think of you and other forum pilots.

Well Guth's post made me go look at my screws and they are both angled the same-from the factory.

Strange. When I click on it I get a page that says :
OEM Reference: 15410-MFJ-D01
Which is the Honda part number for the CB11 and about a dozen other models.
