850 Khaos Twisted Steering?

I landed hard on my right side the other day and thought I bent the bars, because to go straight I now need to have my throttle side towards me a couple inches. No biggie, won’t be my first set of bent handlebars!

Thing is, the more I ride the sled and visually measure things up the more I think the bars are straight and the steering is twisted. I’ve even stood on the skis and tried to twist it back like a fork on a bike.

Is this common? Could I have twisted the post or something else? My right steering boot was torn after the crash. Still hoping it’s just my bars but man they sure look straight...

Bent lower A arm.

Changes the spindle angle and steering goes off center.
