Squid Boy,
Can't help you with the dent question. Sorry. As for the performance question, I'm 5'11", 265lbs (unfortunately). I've run my unmod'd '08 S40 up to 86mph before my pucker factor kicked in, and had throttle to spare. I've passed motorists at 70mph plus, uphill in 5th gear, and can easliy hang with the big boys, be they on bikes, in cars, trucks, or semi's. The only thing that'll suffer is your mpg at speeds over 65mph, and even then it won't be by much. Most of my riding is superslab in DFW. The bike will do fine. As I've grown more accustomed to the bike, and more comfortable asserting my lane space rights on it, I find I can run at speeds I'm more comfortable with, and not get disrespected by everyone on the freeway. Some, but not everyone. Enjoy the bike.
