Welcome aboard. I ride a 2010 Super Tenere from Weston CT. I put the Jesse cases on my black bike, went with the silver powder coating. Best bags I have ever seen or used. I would be happy to show them to you if that will help you with your decision.
For those of you who don't want to wear your padding like a diaper, have you considered a sheep skin seat cover? I bought mine from here: http://www.alaskaleatheronline.com and love it. You don't have to walk around with it in your pants, it stays on the bike.
Sorry to hear and see that. Would be wise to inspect those front forks very carefully to make sure they are not bent. That wheel took a really big hit.
