Default Help needed with subrframe

Hello folks,im looking for some help about the subframe of my f4i.I crashed it few days ago and now after reviewing the damages i got stuck on the subframe.
It has been twisted and moved to the right side of the bike if you are in riding position(i crashed it on left side)

So my secret question is,does anyone know if the subframe is supposed to be in the center of the tire(like equal gap between the subframe and tire) or just a little bit on one of the sides

Here check out the pictures so you can get and idea of what im talking about






Thanks in advance


P.S. Looking for a headlight if anyone has something in mind

It does look odd because of it being off center. From the picture it looks like both rails are paralell to the tire. Does it look twisted? Is there the same distance between the front and rear of the tire and the subframe on each side?

Mine is twisted the other way so I had to space the exhaust as it was hitting the swing arm. I just ride it Haven't got the ambition to fix it yet. If it is tweaked run your fingers along it and feel for a spot that is bent. I can find it on mine.

Yup it was twisted in the right corner,which was higher than the left one but we got that fixed. And no they are not paralel with the tire on both sides this is what we try to figure out if the subrame should be centered or a kinda on one of the sides so when you look it from behind the tail looks ok
