Did you wear good gear and good boots, or was the motorcycle just too heavy?
I had good gear and good boots. The damage was caused by me instinctively putting my leg down while the bike was falling. That's what snapped my knee. The nerve damage was because the pointy part of the tank (it extends outwards a bit at the top) landed directly on the side of my knee. I'm pretty sure having the riding pants with armor is what kept me from further damage as my kneecap was the first thing to land.
