Front Forks

I would strongly recommend removing your front forks and having them checked to ensure that they are still straight after that particular off.
 
The trouble with Cadwell is that there's only really one line and if you go off it there's little room for error
 
Sorry you crashed, I hope the repairs are not "too" costly.

+1 on getting your forks checked
 
Yer im all good mate the bike was surprisingly good fairings still in one piece just lhs engine cover split and switch gear and screen smashed and no broken bones just very sore lol

That's good news. You may also want to check the lower yoke and steering damper as whilst my front forks were still straight after my last crash, both of these parts needed replacing.
