    Best method to straighten bent VL springer

    Picked up a VL springer at Davenport with a slightly bent leg on the main fork. What is the best method to straighten this?
    Heat or no heat? Any advice appreciated

    No heat. Good support and a press.

        I've never done a VL, Eddie,...

        But its always just a matter of resourcefulness:
