Other than those, here is the below..
-Rear Swingarm adjuster
-Foot steps
-Left Crankcase Cover
-Handlebar/levers
-Turn Signals
-Mirrors
Overall, not too bad and maybe a good time to make some small changes that I've been looking at. Biggest question comes into the speedo. When looking online, when sites say they are compatible. What should I look out for? I imagine they aren't necessarily plug-n-play, but that's just an assumption. Again, appreciate all the help from everyone!
I scratched my headlight, turn signals, bent the Assy that hold the gauges (it wasnt centered around the key/ignition), and scratched the covers on the back of the speedo/tach. I also had a little road rash on the right side cover.
I was able to get a used headlight and bucket from ebay that I didnt even end up needing cause I could live with the small scratch on my headlight ring. I also got the right side cover and gasket from ebay. Brand new OEM for like half the price
I got the Assy for the gauges and covers for the speedo/tach/cluster from Bikebandit.
The scratches on the turn signal wasn't a big deal and left it and I just recently upgraded to micro LED turn signals from and back. They cost me 10$ on ebay I believe and look amazing. Much much slimmer than the stock ones and just as bright.

I don't know the exact speed for my fall, but was roughly 25mph. So the bike slid for a bit on one side and then flipped to slide on the other.
The whole assembly broke into a few pieces. When I got up and the bike up. The board was hanging on by the connection. I would have to test it out but I think it technically turns on but there is def some damage around the board as well and I think one of the needles is gone.
For the headlight, when I took it off. Some of the clips on the inside were broken so technically I could probably get away with just the headlight casing.
--So I was just looking at BikeBandit. I would need to replace the meter/speedo/tach, upper/lower case and the cover. BikeBandit does seem to be cheaper for these parts actually by a hair.
