Damn. Found out the cause of the constant wrist pain.

[riffer]

Bloody scaphoids haven't healed. Grrr.

Oh well, at least I have a reason for the wrist pain, and problems with a pincer grip, doing up screws etc.

Guess I'll have to talk to the specialist now about options.

Who's had their scaphoids pinned? How quickly can you go back to daily riding large bikes?

Feck! Whats it going to do for the gat playing?

Many years ago I broke my left wrist badly. Was operated and got two long spikes put in to keep it together while it healed.

The problem was that the cast went all the way out to my fingers and so I could not pull the clutch. Some fast thinking was needed.

I twisted the clutch so it stood straight up. Now I could by pushing down with my cast engage the clutch on my Bonnie and change the gears. But the cast fell apart after a coupld of days, so I had to go and get a new one. This was no good.

So more modification, this time to the cast: I fitted a alloy L-shaped bar to the side of my cast and I was riding my bike for the 6 months until the final cast came off!

That's what Miss Mully is for.

Hence my wrists are fine.

I'd be more worried about that bloody big growth on your finger of your left hand.
Scary shit.<_<

Geez Drew, I told you what to do. Throw a GSXR1100W bottom end at the sucker.

Heaps more ponies!

Besides, I've been riding like this for two years - may not end up doing anything about it now. I could be stuck with the pain forever.

Get an Aprilia Mana - no clutch, just a tiptronic type switch.

row after three years of bone grafts pins screws etc,
my right wrist is 2cm shorter than my left,
