Haven't had much time to ride my 2023 SRX due to the wife having a baby. We had finally gotten enough snow around my area to go out riding, I managed to put a few hundred KM on it Saturday (Bought it as a new left over from the dealership last year)
Yesterday I took my dad out and let him ride my new 23 SRX while I rode my tuned 2017 Sidewinder, we came up to a road crossing and somehow when he came up onto the road (dirt/Gravel) the left ski bit and caused him to lay my sled down onto its left side. The tether never came off the machine, so he got up and turned it off. Once I realized what had happened and got back to the road he was in shock at to what had happened, we flipped the sled off its side and made sure he was alright. Gave it a few minutes, checked the oil level in the oil tank and it seemed fine, I have the roll over delete and didn't notice and oil coming out of my looped hose. We started the sled and there were no codes, went to move it off the road and it smoked blue smoke for a split second. Other than the cosmetic damage to the sled it seemed to run fine the last 65 km home. have already started pricing out replacement panels, spindle etc. I am just worried if this could have caused any harm to the engine? What are your guy's thoughts?

My riding partner did the same thing also. No harm to the engine. He did it before we did his rov delete and it sent off a code. Replaced oil sensor and all has been good, 2000 miles later.
