Thanks John.
I already bent the gearshift back to pretty much normal orientation so the bike is easily rideable again. I will be replacing the gearshift lever, though, since the shift nub part is pried out a bit from the lever proper. I also removed the left side fairing for repair, and straightened out the left front indicator. It is amazing that the fairing only has localized damage so a repair may be cost effective (new one costs $280). I'll see what my body shop has to say tomorrow.
Looking at this bike and how its put together, it is almost as though it is designed to go down. Just have to have the right sliders in the right places and for minor crashes it will be just fine.
