This is from another post I wrote on this site.


"Also look on the front forks where they touch the frame if you pull the handlebars all the way to either side. You will see a tab attached to the frame that stops the forks. The tabs will be bent bad in a hard landing or could be lightly dinged up. Either way I would stay away from a used bike after seeing a screwed up tab.



Oh yeah I'm new to the board and this is my first post hope it helps. I herd it from a coworker who had 19 years experiance in collision repair."
