Is it normal for some of these bolts to be finger tight? One of the bolts that holds the tank down, under the seat, was EXTREMELY loose and the other one was about finger tight. Same with the bolts on my battery terminals!

All really good suggestions. I've been meaning to do the same to mine. In fact, BB, my gas tank was missing a bolt entirely!
Best of luck with yours, and please keep posting as you make upgrades.
