Take your front end apart and reset it. Torque the axle, triple clamps correctly. Bar mounts could be twisted, undo them from the bottom and re align. Or, do the ole tree straightening by smacking your wheel into the side of a tree. If all those fail, you have bent bars
Your best to stand in front of the bike - looking back at it - put the front wheel between your knees - grab the grips and jerk the handlebars back in line - then jump back on the bike and check if further tweaking is required.
Banging against a tree is too rough and can easily push the wheel the other way.
Re-setting the front fork and axle by loosening / jabbing the brake etc wont necessarily fix the problem 100% of the time (if bar clamp is rubber cone mounted and they are tweaked out) - and its super time consuming - Most people only re-align that stuff like the video above - when they have a reason to take the front wheel off.
If you whacked it hard enough, you could have bent your triple clamps. If you try the aforementioned procedures and it still lines up crooked, then it's probably the case.
