if theres something heavy on one side of your handlebars that can pull them to one side.
take your front wheel out, line up both legs so the sides line up in your line of sight. make sure the dropouts are parallel.
Also, if you are running a front quick release wheel, the axles are something like 8mm. Some older road bike forks have full 10mm (3/8ths) drops.
This means its possible to put your front wheel in bent, just by a few mm.
