Default ALMOST KNEE DOWN... Huh?!?

So there is this double S turn around my way that i love and i was practicing trying to get low and knee down for the past couple days and i ALMOST got it down pact... only thing is I realized that i can only go knee down when going to the right but the left, im not leaning as far...

Im like WTF is wrong with me... i feel comfortable going both ways left and right (maybe a little more comfortable right since i got it down) so the last run i did, i come up and i just dont get it so im looking at my handle bars and they seem kinda awkward... Stock bars but the right one seems a little bent down than the left. The only way i could tell was to try to roughly measure the distance between my knees on the pegs of the bike and the bars. it looks maybe a couple CM but i couldnt tell

i checked the bars and the forks and the bars are lined up with the nub that the forks have to keep it straight... is there anything that i should look into before i start going crazy and thinking its just me

You're thinking about it to much. Once you have gotten over the psychological hurdle of doing it the 1st couple of times & know you know you can, just relax, don't make an issue out of it. I'm good at left handers, but suck going right, I don't lose sleep over it though.
As Frankie said "Relax..........."
