before you were finding your limit by dragging pegs. once you moved them, your new limit is the kickstand mount... which is way more dangerous since its solid.

Yea that was what I was thinking. The bottom of the kickstand is really grinded off.

Having the clipons and rearset may significantly lower the bill, though - that's a good thing.
How fast were you moving?

The tank damage happened because when the bike slid off of the road, it slid into a big rock formation. I started pricing the pieces damaged and it comes to around $1,400. So that sounds like a fairly good guess. To be honest I am not sure exactly how fast I was going. I would say around 40 mph.
