I thought he did it in quite a relaxed way.

It is a moped, so not overly as easy as it initially looks Wink

Wow... Jesus. Relax boss man. Not all of us are knobs.

Got a photo of what you currently have? What have you undone? You don't really get loose handle bars on a moped.

I did a search for the bike in question and its a scooter with loads of plastic on the bars. It's not easy to get to by any means, however it begs the question, how did they become loose in the first place if the plastics are all intact?

Not sure if the OP justifies the attitude, but meh, I had a go.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Apologies to those who have actually helped instead of being funny about it, and I had a crash which has loosened them at first I thought it was the forks but a neighbour has told me the forks are fine, if I put my handlebars straight the front wheel is not aligned have I been misinformed?

Bash the wheel against a wall in the opposite direction to the misalignment.
All I done after sliding down the road.
