i couldn't get an accurate reading on my mph since the speedo was jumping from 60 to 90.
Bad cable can cause that. Have you checked/lubed it?
All in all, not bad for a 400 mi round trip. Sounds like overall the bike performed well.
Smoke may be from oil soaked into exhaust wrap.

it's a new cable but i think it does need to be lubed. at highway speeds i think the cable is binding and then springing back out which makes the speedo "bounce".
i probably rode an extra 100 miles since the end of my trip and i think i just finally burned off all the oil
i have a wierd clunking now coming from up front. i want to say it's the bearings. 31K miles on the bike on original bearings, what do you think?
