It's possible that your steering stem could be twisted from a wreck. If it's not twisted, you just need to adjust your tie rods. It helps to run a tie strap from one bar end, through the rear grab bar, to the other end of the bars. This will prevent the steering from turning while you are adjusting the wheels straight. Loosen the nuts on the tie rods, and turn the tie rods to toe the wheel in and out. You want about 1/8" toe-in on each side. Tighten it back up, and you're good to go. It's really easy once you do it the first time.
Its also very possible you have a bent tie rod. This can be helped by taking it off and laying it on something hard. Concrete floor worked for me. And rolling it till you see the bend. Take a hammer and hit it to straighten it out. Worked for me till I got a new one.
