I been meaning to update but its a crazy day at work.
Yes, Robert's subconscious or him mulling over the pic he took noticed another unknown little black box deeper inside the tower saying 'UP' but not being up.
As soon as he showed me I also clicked, all suddenly made sense. I did not even want to take the bike off the bakkie or bend the bracket back in place before testing but tilted the bike there on the bakkie to 45degrees and started it...and it did not die!
Turns out either from the crash or our manhandling of tower had bend the bracket the tilt sensor sits on. It was awesome having my bike back.
Other than wooden front brakes, she did not give me any headaches for the rest of the trip. Rather impressive in my opinion, taking that hit and (what was left of it) still finishing the trip.
