If you are refering to the right side I would have to say for the air cleaner.

they didnt look right to me either, I will have to look at them again. I think one is slightly forward than the other one, its been awile since i looked at them so i cant remember, but the are defenitly offset, I noticed it when I put the widow pegs on and was looking at the pegs from a side view.

I notice my right peg feels a little further back than the left. May just be me, but definitely feel a difference....

No disrespect here but you guys need to measure your legs  .
The engine is such an irregular shape with offset cylinder castings and huge air cleaner that it is very difficult to make a visual assessment from above, not to mention that the photo vantage point is off center to the right.
Another factor affecting your perception may be the air cleaner forcing your right knee out. Just spread your legs and get some ventilation 
If you make some measurements from the front of the frame at the foot peg mounting bolts I think you will put your minds at ease  .

I will have to get some pics to show you what i mean...pegs are defenitly not in the same place on ther bike, maybe the mount is different but it is offset enough to see with the naked eye.

Try making the shot from above the headlight .
Stock pegs with angling shims. My forks (and headlight) are turned a little to the right (left side of the bike).
It's pretty hard to get a definitive shot so I would measure also. I did and mine are the same.
