bike not running right...

Bike runs strong till 10k RPM then stalls and sputters... The bike was flipped but only dented the tank... If i ease into it it will go through 10k but doesn't pull like it should.. any ideas where to start?
It's an 07' ZX6r

Re: bike not running right...

dent was on the top left side where the kawasaki letters are. the dent wasn't that bad though but looks like the bike took a hard hit on the left side faring..... fuel lines aren't pinched i've checked that...

Re: bike not running right...

how is the power curve at 10k? does it just fall flat on its face n bog right out or does it just a lil longer to make it through that rpm range?
