Someone backed into my bike- I have some ?s...
Someone backed into my bike (I wasn't on it) and hit the front tire/fender/headlight. In the process the bike was knocked over also. Initially it didnt look like much damage at all. At a quick glance it looked like my front fender had a gouge in it and a small scuff on the headlight. On my way home I noticed that it seemed like one handle bar is slightly more forward than the other when I am driving straight (maybe 3/4 inch difference at the end of the handles). Then when I got home I noticed that the fender was actually cracked between the forks. I'm not really concerned about the headlight because the scuff is very minor.
So here are my questions:
Is it an indication of a major problem that the handlebars are off or is it a quick fix where I can loosen the forks and twist them a bit to align them?
I dont see any front fenders on ebay at the moment for the bike, so if I bought a new one for the year, would the yellow match my bike or would it be an obviously different dye? The cheapest I have found online is about $95 not counting shipping. There wasn't any on ebay right now. Does anyone know a place that I can order one for a better price?
Thanks in advance for all your help.

thats where I got mine!, although it sits a little bit cockeyed, it goes un-noticed unless I stand up while riding and lean over the windscreen and look at it
Did you look on the bay for F4i parts? I believe that the front fender and clipons are the same... there are different yellows I believe..

Thanks everyone.
I ended up getting it at www.powersmotorsports.com. It is supposed to come in on the 10th. I will let everyone know how it fit, color match etc. It is sunrise yellow- I hope my bike was mostly garage stored before I got it so the color wont vary too much.
