Whats this part called?
 

After my off the other week I spent the weekend putting the new parts back on the bike. Whilst I was fitting the gear lever I noticed that this bit was all bent and the foot rest is now not level. I need to source a new bit but I am unsure what I am asking for. Any ideas? Also does anyone think that it will cause me any problems if I ride with it like this? (I am concerned that the gear lever may pop off while riding).

Do you mean the big footrest bracket/hanger that bolts to the frame and the gear lever and peg attach to?

What is it meant to look like straight?

Re: Whats this part called?
 

its the left hand front 'footrest hanger'.

As long as there are no cracks in the hanger metal, riding it 'bent' will be fine :)

Thanks all. There is a slight crack in the hole where the bottom bolt attaches the hanger to the frame. Other than that its fine.

I also think you've got a securing bolt missing from the middle of the chain guide that lies on the top of the swingarm ?:confused:
