If you managed to hit it hard enough to bend all the motor mounts Id be wondering about steering head area being out of wack with rear of bike,just buy a frame with a title and be done with it.

Smartest thing said yet !

If it bent the motor mount's it ain't right.
Put it on a frame jig or or get a new frame.

...I don't need to see how it tracks with that much damage.

...bottom line, old frame = RIP!
