Glad you're ok.

You'll work the bike out.

Now get that swollen looked at and make sure you're ok.

This is not debatable.
This ..... i agree with. having a destroyed ankle  myself. health comes first.  only THEN work on the bike. check tree alignment first. can always check the neck and see if it itself is tweaked. ( paint will usually show this. but tbh i doubt this is the case.  just got knocked out of alignment. may have to postpone the safety check  there. youre not kidding about Deutschland/germany being strict on safety checks. (ive got distant family there. they complain about this often lol) but my friend work on YOURSELF first.

Did you replace the housing?

Sorry to hear about your spill, what a bummer. Glad you're okay and sounds like damage could have been a lot worse, so hopefully you can get her back on the road soon!

Sounds like classic survival response crash.. hopefully a learning experience for you, nothing to beat yourself up about.

I did replace the housing... and the two rubber seals that go around each gauge because mine were pretty ripped up and outta shape.
