Yeah been there done that... I suggest you put your bike on a stand and let it run for a while... that simple low side not even going 5 mph caused a hair line crack in my crank cover, of course I didn't realize that till I was 40 miles away with oil all over my boot and my rear tire. Let's just say it was a tense day... check it once then check it again.

I'll be sure to check that out. I did find some other minor damage I didn't notice at first, so I appreciate the heads up.

Thanks everyone. I'm more pissed at myself for letting something so stupid happen tbh.
