Start with the simple stuff, check your tire pressure and chain alignment, after that take a good look at the lower triple and steering head. You didn't say what was damaged in the crash so it's hard to be more specific. If you want bring it by the shop I can take it for a test ride and give you my opinion.

thanks alot ill look at it this afternoon , the parts that where damaged in the crash are... the tank,rt. side fairing,rear sub frame ,rt. clip on , muffler and header (just the end of it where the muffler bolts to), rt foot peg, ....... i thank thats abought it .. i picked the bike up pretty cheap because as soon as you fired it up it hit the rev limiter . i took the tank off of it and the throtle bodys where knoked out of the rubber boots. but it back together and it fired right up . it only has 5086 miles on it and runs good i just hope it aint nothing major wrong with the frame .. ( im a poor boy that cant afford $280 a month for inshurence on a new on . so i have the buy junk and fix it up )
