I lost focus during the exit of a curve and went straight off into the ditch. I was ok but the bike suffered some damages. The right fairing and the turn signal are toast and so is the windshield. Those are things I'm ok with replacing, but I don't know the best tools or way to untwist forks, or how to inspect them to make sure they're still safe to use.
The shop I usually go to was abruptly closed so I'm hoping to get a little bit of guidance. From what I hear from people you just loosen up some bolts and you can straighten them up like a bicycle, but lots of people are full of it too.
I've got the service manual ordered and I own a torque wrench. Any other tools I need to buy for this kind of a job?
