Simple fix, roll up to a solid object, and bang the wheel against it to twist the forks back.
If ya got a center stand or a lift, you can also , raise bike, loosen the pinch bolts just enough so the wheel weight does not pull the forks outta the triple, spin the wheel as fast as you can (forward)and grab a whole handful of front brake, repeat if pinch bolts were still to snug.
Re-Torque to spec on the Pinch bolts, lower bike and see it its all more gooder.
I'll send the Bill in the mail Mmmmmmm Kay.

If I hold it so it appears straight, the bike tries to turn right.
