Hey Chuck

Don't be down fella!
If its was running fine before the 'fall' then its gonna be real simple so don't get carried away doing anything drastic.
Have you checked that there is a spark when you turn it over...? Easy way is to remove the LHS plug cap and put a different plug in it short it out by holding the very end to the frame or a solid bracket? If its sparking OK then a quick check to see if the fuel tap is damaged by the fall? maybe the vacuum pipe has been trapped or damaged? undo the drain screws on each carb to see if the bowls are filling with fuel?
No Spark ? Has the clutch lever switch be damaged ? and check also the side stand switch which are all connected back to the igniter pack and will stop the ignition circuit going live.....
What about the neutral light ? has that suddenly disappeared?
If you've checked all of this then sorry if it sounds obvious

Keep your pecker up!!
