More BS to deal with, it's almost fixed though.

Thanks Fred. I had it out for a ride following the prang repairs and have a nasty vibration in the front end after 70kph. I just pop'd the tire off and trued the rim and balanced the tire/wheel assy and will see.Didn't seem that bad. Took 45 grams to balance opposite the valve stem/yellow dot. The tire was new before the incident and it ran fine with no vibes. I can't see a broken belt or other defect but the tire has a small high spot of maybe 1-2mm when spun up by hand.Definitely up on the bead too. Some kid pulled out in front of my brother through a stop sign without looking which caused the accident. Hoping this fixes the vibration.

All fixed Fred, runs smooth now. Not sure if it was rim truing , assembly balancing, or tire re-seating. I'm a happy camper again! Thanks everyone for all the kind sentiment, made the mess easier to swallow.
