Straightening Handlebars | Aprilia Tuareg 660

I recently took a tumble on my Aprilia Tuareg 660 which left the handlebars twisted. There can be several reasons for this:
1) the bars themselves are bent
2) the triple tree is twisted on the forks
3) the bar risers are bent/twisted
In this video I show the symptoms, and talk through the possible options to fix the issue and show how to do so.

Please do check out my other social media, it is the best way for you to see what is going on in between videos!
