Ride it and if rides ok then all is well but if you keep having to bend it you will be apt to have metal fatigue problem.

When you bend a steel tube that much it makes it more susceptible to fatigue failure which means it can fail at a much lesser stress amount that would have been perfectly acceptable had it not been bent.
