Give it a good wash and figure out if the frame is just dirty or scratched. Then maybe decide if you'll use it for street duty again.

That's what I would do. The more track days I started doing, the less and less I give a fuck about how my bike looks on the street. I still wipe it down before every ride, but there's some scratches and stuff I don't care about nearly as much as if it was a street bike only. Fix what you need to fix to get it running solid and see how much money you have to make it pretty/buy crash parts to protect you from another possible crash.

I'm trying to buy Vortex case covers (Ebay) now to protect me from a possible future wreck. Speaking of Vortex and your new bike, Kurt...get me a discount!
