Default 2001 polaris scrambler 500 2x4 lost spark while riding

Was going riding up a hill not to fast, started to pop wheelie so I couldn't turn and hit a tree. Not hard at all. Try to start it back up and it won't start. So I'm gonna start by cleaning point by stater, and all other wires. Where else would you look??

I'd first look under the front panel on the ignition switch and left control switch connections,cdi connection to coil, etc. May be as simple as that.Plus if you don't have power or the lights, or dash you could have popped the 20 amp circuit breaker up from the battery in a sealed pouch. Needs to have 12 volts in and out. If you can't trace down the problem here's a Scrambler 500 manual that can help on electrical trouble shooting and many other problems. https://www.tradebit.com/filedetail....-repair-manual
