Hey RK, hope your mending and the RS is back to norm in no time. Still a little cool to be out for me yet and the roads are full of sand to boot.

Good luck..

Glad to hear you're OK, RK. When I went down, the biggest bruise was my ego. Everything on the bike is repairable or replaceable.

Just remember ... chicks dig scars.


My wife points out the cut on the nose...every time she calls me "Gimpy" as I hobble around the house...

Today my ankle is only about 2 times normal size, and turned a wonderful shade of purple. Am I having fun yet?

Glad to here your good. Whats a couple more weeks of waiting after that long winter.
Came to a sliding halt in a gas station parking lot in texas two years ago on a road trip, really beat the bike up, fractured a couple ribs(landed on the right mirror), and still had to ride it home 1200 miles! That was on my shadow, I was bummed.


BB--
Couple more weeks? Pffft! I got the bike all fixed up tonight and ready to go. Now all I need is nice weather again...

Mending, yes, thanks...my ankle is only twice normal size and started doing a great 70s rock band impression...Deep Purple.
BUT, I did get the bike all fixed tonight! As soon as the weathe clears...VROOOM, as Musky would say!

Pop--

All it turned out to be was the fuse! I popped in a new 15 amp and she's lighted and good to go!

Did a closer inspection and I see I DID scrape the bottom of my HKs, but you literally have to lay on the ground to see the scratches Who cares?
