The Oakland hills are a cruel mistress. It was just earlier today when I was enjoying the twistees without a care in the world. Made it home, bike and myself perfectly happy. I go to visit an acquaintance at the hills and do a poor, inclined u-turn. With a crash, my bike dropped to its side, snapping the clutch lever and bending my handlebar. I'm perfectly fine, but my ego will never recover.
BARFers, what should my plan of action be? No leaks anywhere, and it runs fine. Should I do a valve check in case things got jostled? Can the handlebars be salvaged? It's not horribly bent but I have no tools or idea how to bend it back properly. A replacement is already in a virtual shopping cart if not.
