What would you check after a crash

So far all the seals are good. Runs good and has power(rode it)

I re-aligned the rear tire to make sure everything was good and got a new brake set up for the rear. Found out from the previous owner took the return spring out so the rear brake lever wouldn't come up. Hmm I wonder if this is what caused me to crash.

Other than that I checked the frame and it all looks good. Maybe its me but the motor sounds like it has a little more buzzing noise in it but it could of always been there.

Anything else?

You should check the motor mounts, well, where it mounts to the frame anyways. If it's a high speed/impact crash, things can jar loose.

Check your bank angle sensor too! I know mine no longer works however it is still in tact. Cause if you wreck again, and the bike never shuts off, that engine is toast.

Vitals are good :check:

Motor mounts are good and tight still:check:

Bank angle sensor ill have to check that. Again I guess if this bike goes down I hope it burns I'll be done after that haha
