Default Shifter bent?

I just figured out how to adjust my shift lever to where I need it to be. But now it feels and looks like it's bent in towards the bike. Does this look right? If not how do I fix it? Thanks!

Looks alright to me. If you don't like it get a pry bar and bend it out to where you want it.

Yeah cast aluminum doesn't bend so easily.

it will bend the first time, when you try to bend it back is when it is brittle.

it's not like your bending it 2 inches over, what maybe 1/2", it will bend. but I still think it looks alright where it sits.

My ninja 250 was like that and I loved it cause my boot fit perfect. My friends '07 ninja's shifter was out more and my boot would hardly fit between it and the foot rest.
