403 Forbidden, kind of locked myself out

I've been messing around with security both through apache2.conf and an .htaccess. Right now if I try to visit my domain I am greeted with a Forbidden 403 message.

 

I thought this was because of the Options -Indexes set in .htaccess but I commented it out and saved .htaccess and restarted the server.

I set the initial <Directory > options to the default settings and I'm still getting the 403 Forbidden message.

 

Any idea what I'm missing / what to check?

I just wanted to add to this, relevant, I think I locked the apache2.conf as I can't seem to save any changes.

I think I may have used chmod go-rwx

 

I am root and I can't modify apache2.conf what does that imply?

 

Could it  be the user/group which I changed to www-data ?
