Post by: Banned on August 25, 2009, 02:26:11 PM
On the left side going about 15 mph. all i got was a scrapped knee right knee oddly enough and a bruise above my right ankle. what should i look for on the bike to be dmg other than mirror. bike started back up, but had to reconnect clutch electrical wires?.

Sounds like you're good to go. Bars bending is pretty standard. It's an excuse to go buy some renthals. Tipping over that slow most likely isn't going to ruin anything serious, just bend and scratch some stuff.
