Attempt to repair or part the bike out?

Hey I'm trying to figure out if this bike is too far gone or if it's salvageable and repairable.

First up, this may indicate a bent crankshaft. If that's the case, I don't see this bike ever running again. On the other hand, it could simply be a bent clutch basket. It went down pretty dang hard.

Now for the pictures. Definitely some damage to the clutch basket. ~200 on ebay

Clutch cover will obviously need replacement.. ~50 on ebay

Top half of engine case needs replacement.. ~30 on ebay, plus about ten hours of labor.

I think the clutch cable is alright but the left handlebar is definitely bent. May be able to straighten it with a torch..

Right side footpeg bracket will be needed.. ~30 on ebay.. Will also need intermediate section of Area-P high mount race exhaust but that probably will be under 50 delivered.

Left side footpeg also needed ~30 on ebay. And the mounting tabs on the frame are also bent.. not sure if they can be straightened.

Doesn't look like this will last very long..

Not to mention the cosmetics. The fairings are trashed. That doesn't really bother me as I don't much care for appearances.. but worth noting.

So the ultimate question is.... New sh!t? or fix what I have?

All of this is rather depressing. Insurance did not pay out anything pertaining to bike repairs or anything of that nature. Thanks guys!
