Stand in front of bike with front tire between your knees.
Grab the handlebars (and hope the index attachment to the top triple clamp allows you to put a bit of force on them without them spinning on the fork tube).
Force handlebars in the direction needed to make things straight.
Tighten 'er up."
that's exactly how we do it on the trails after crash. Except we usually have to add a good solid kick on the side of the tire.
