It's the bottom of the "tripple tree" where the shocks attach.

Hi, so I had to brake hard today to avoid a cyclist... I have a BMS Robot 150. I was going 30mph and laid into the brakes pretty hard. The front wheel locked up, hopped, and skidded just a bit as I came to a stop. When I started up again, the handle bars were a few degrees off to the right side (steering the scoot in a straight line means the handle bars are pointing a few degrees to the right). I also noticed that the front wheel was no longer lining up with the front fender. I loosened up the front wheel, which seems to have corrected the fender alignment issue. Next I loosened and re-tightened the handle bars thinking that perhaps they'd gone out of whack... Nope. I ended up noticing the base of the steering stem (where it attaches to the shock towers seems to be twisted down just a bit on the left side). The damn thing has been shaking like hell above 45mph recently too... Is the plausible? What can I do about it? Thanks all!
