    Go to the chemist and buy a roll of medical paper cellotape. Us this 24/7 where they sliced you up for the next few weeks or so. It'll help support it, gives a tight skin warning before any pain from movemnet and ensures your wound heals nice and thin.

    Edit: This tape approach is also handy if you've had a c-section or another big operaiton.

    good to see you can ride again, i had a catheter put in on the 19th Dec because of a bladder infection they replaced it with another on the 25th Jan. So i still can not ride. having a scan this week ,I hope, to find out whats wrong. Last year In June had a 8.5kg tumour removed from my insides. Took a 10 hour operation to remove, that took about 5 months to get get back on my bike.
    three can keep a secret,if two of them are dead.

    Nice one XP@ - I can't wait to see that CBR running.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Good to hear you are back on de road again.
    Last week while recovering from Meningitis ( ) I pulled the front end of the CBR to bits so I could fix the bulbs that were blown in the speedo.
    Hope to be back on the road by the end of the week (when my replacement parts get here).

    Bastard. It's five weeks today since I bust a collarbone and two weeks today until "the powers that be" decide if and when they're going to operate to fix it.

    Mind you, it appears that human bone growth is potentially faster than the marvels of modern commerce. After a month I still have yet to receive a helmet (OK, so I wanted a graphic one, rather than just plain black) and it will be six weeks until the STeed is repaired.

    Why does it take so long for motorcycle stuff to get ordered, dispatched and delivered? If I had ordered books from Amazon.com at the same time I ordered my helmet, I would have had them read by now! Maybe I should set myself up in opposition to the New Zealand distributors, as I can't believe that a major successful international manufacturer like Shoei (or any other helmet manufacturer for that matter) can't ship within 48-hours of receiving an order. The weak link has to be the New Zealand connection. The weak link needs a competitor.

    To all those who are not riding for medical or mechanical know what it is like, I think the longer you have to wait the more you will appreciate the moment you are back in the saddle :-)

    Oh, and the man at VTNZ was nice to me :-) so look out for the black and silver cbr600 around wellington for the next few weeks until I sell it... anyone interested?
