When the bike is on a flat surface and you are holding it straight up, does it feel balanced, or is the balance point with the bike leaning slightly off to one side. Some stock Harleys are not "center balanced". It depends on enging/primary offset, weight of the exhaust, and how the saddlebag contents are evened out. If the bike is out of balance when holding it up, the person riding it will compensate by riding with the bike slightly leaned to one side and the onesided tire wear results.
