protection

is the tank on the Ten reinforced on the sides? feels pretty dam sturdy.

Ever since ive got the Ten ive been pouring over it trying to find any weakness that i could improve, basically trying to make it more bomb proof than it already is.

I understand that no bike is full bomb proof, theres always that silly shaped rock that when you drop it finds its way in some where and breaks something...buts that life.

an example is the rear break resovoir. The little guard you can buy will help if say a rock flies into it and breaks it and your in the middle of no where ( chance of this is low as your leg is int he way , but you never now)

Other weaknesses i believe are the coolant bottle, hose from pump to rad (which ive seen broke when bike dropped on a rocky path) and maybe the side of the rad.

Any one bought things? made things? or heard of things broke in freak falls?
