Default quick rear MM question

When you pull the rear motor mount and look at it straight on, is the metal frame supposed to be square to its self? ..ie, are both sides symmetrical?

This bike had a pretty good spill a little over a year ago, and I'm wondering if the thing is tweaked or not.

So a new one would be shaped (bent) the same way?

bump. Local stealer doesn't have one in stock, so I'm hoping for some feedback.

Rear tire is off center (further than even a Dyna should be,) and I'm hoping this is related.

I would put a new one one if for no other reason than my peace of mind...But that's just me.
Order it through Zanotti if you can afford to wait and the price will be better.

BTW it does look tweeked.
