I had a minor tip over. Fell on the right side. Not sure if the rear brake lever got bent. I would appreciate some pics of the brake pedal from overhead so I can compare the clearance from the engine. Thanks for any help.

The shaft the brake pedal mounts to should be perpendicular to centerline of bike and pedal lever should be straight and parallel to centerline. Not the picture you asked for, but what I have readily available.

I probably should have done it this way in the first place...
Here is a pic of how mine looks now. Could anyone take a look at their bike for me & let me know if this looks normal or bent in?

Parrick, does it work? Can you get your foot on it? If so then your good to go.

It doesnt look bent to me.. But as long as it works and isnt obstructed by anything, it'll be fine

I really appreciate the responses but I am not getting what I need.
My fault.
I started the whole thing out wrong with a title requesting a picture instead of posting my own pic & requesting a comparison.
I just need someone to take a look at a bike that hasn't been tipped or wrecked & tell me for sure if the tip of the lever in my pic is in the same position in relation to the engine casing.
