Ask the theme author about it...

An unmodified default theme has no known bugs with RTL...

Considering that I don't actually know what the root cause is, I can only assume the developer never checked RTL mode (since most don't use it) and there are bugs relating to it.

Editing the themes is fine if you know how to fix it, but that relies on understanding what's actually wrong. Half the problem there is that I see some things are messed up but I don't recognise the writing to know what it is supposed to be anyway (and have no idea what the theme is *actually* supposed to look like by comparison)

All themes on this site have dedicated threads you can comment in and maybe the author will get back to you.

See if this makes sense to you: Making custom themes work with RTL languages (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=438174.0)
