    Excellent choice. (I had a DL650 Strom)

    When you get it (or before) come and join us on For Suzuki V-Strom Enthusiasts (I'm a Moderator on there). There's also another Strom forum VSRI V-Strom Riders International - Index

    Get better soon. My wife occasionally pushes for me to sell the XJR1300.

    Patient patience. Xrays booked for 15/8 seems a long way. My House has about 52 to many stairs for me at present

    On a really bright note walking well in the pool - I am allowed to non weight baring. Even Brighter note Bye Bye Dry July

    Cheers all. Have a great weekend

    What you really really need Diver is a temporary Off Road Wheel Chair. "Stairs? What stairs?" Job done.

    Keep on improving & don't let this ruin your sense of humour.


    Btw, is that Red wine or are you still losing blood?

    Them Bones them Bones those Pelivic and shoulder bones

    Home today. Right leg, Bum and Right arm hit the stairs as a kookaburra laughed across the road

    Honestly it was funny. Loved having a cup of my own and my chair in my brief visit Broken bones take 6 weeks right? How about surgialy reinforced bones?

    I have about 1/2 a tone of stainless steel in my pelvis and shoulder. Titanium rod in my broken leg which I have been standing on for a month now. My unbroken leg under the repaired "Open book" pelvis has been egg shell weight bearing for four weeks as well, Shoulder left arm in Egg shell useless for the same time.

    X-rays and Surgeons review a few hours later tomorrow about 4 and a bit weeks post my surgical reinforcing. can I walk? Can I use my right arm? Or do I wait to that 6 week typical and use my bum to get up stairs and home Friday or early next week?

    I am honestly lucky to be alive so the questions are really for fun not serious. Do Broken bones sugically enhanced heal better than the plaster cast way? I find out in a few hours

    The damage:
    Broken Right leg
    Smashed pelvis and hip
    Punctured lung
    Broken right arm at the sholder
    Broken ribs
    Spine T1 and T2
    A few minor facial fractures
    A few litres of blood lost

    Lucky man, some one was looking after you, still, no excuse to miss veterans day, 18th August. You still have a left hand to hold a convivial.
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
