Yesterday while traveling at about 64kmph I couldn't avoid a pothole of about 7 inches deep, due to street light blind spot. This has resulted in ruptured side wall of my back tyre. I currently can't analyse anymore damage to the bike since riding it with a flat rear tyre won't help. Visually I see no damages at the front or rear end.
Please list all the saftey inspections needed after hitting a huge pothole at about 64kmph.
In my experience, but riding Pirelli MT60's, this is no problem whatsoever.
Been taking potholes at higher speeds, my license plate even shows signs of the rear tyre hitting it.
Change the tyre and speed on

check the wheel rim not the tyre, KTM wheels (and probably most other makes now too due to making them lighter and lighter and lighter..............) are quite soft so can be dented on impacts
