glad to hear your not in the hospital still or worse. Sorry to hear about the field training.. That shit sucks in the first place not to mention with road rash.. 
...as far as clutching wheelies.. I would venture to say that it puts more wear on your clutch for obvious reasons and wheelies by yanking the throttle would put more wear and tear on the transmission.. I haven't had any problems with my old gixxer as far as that go. I don't clutch them but that's jus kuz I a bit hesitant of looping the bastard. Specially now with the busa. but hey, that's my 2 cents..

Riding puts stress on the motor, and all the moving parts of your bike so the best thing to do is just buy a motorcycle to put in your living room and look at.

Does it affect you that much that some random guy 1500 miles away went and paid his own money for a 1000?
Do we really have to fight over who uses the back brake or not?
Do you have to argue over stupid pointless shit on the Internet?
