Sorry Nasty, With the rising rate of the repair bill to the 1000 and the pittence I am receiving from ACC I am not in a position to be purchasing any more toy's for a while yet. If you still have it in a few months time when im a bit more financially sound I will be keen as mustard to have a look.
Sorry mate

will young man you have done a good number on that there ankle...... but it is well time to harden up an start walking on it to get that joint working again. just a word of warning when you start physio and they start forcing your ankle joint to move.......OUCH!!!!!

Had to laugh when i saw the xray as i have an IDENTICAL one of my right ankle. Follow the rehab rules and you'll be good as a new. The kankle throb is a real pain, and when you drink beer watch it grow!!!!

They told me 6 months aswell, i was back at work 9 weeks later on lite duties an that was when i still swung a hammer.... ACC just don't cut it.

be good an heal well bro

Well I finally got all the bits apart from a front break lever for my bike threw it all together on tuesday fired her up and took it for a pootle to the end of Deans street and back, being very carefull as I learnt my leason from riding my 750 with no breaks (that didnt end well at all).

Cut a long story short I dont yet have strength in my ankle to change up gears so will reverse the shift pattern and hope to be in a psition to do the winter series (against doctors orders).

felt really good to get back on the horse for the first time in over 2 months.
Thats my story stay tuned for more.
Cheers peeps.

Ok, so I just met with the hemotologist (blood clot in leg) and have been informed that I am not to ride my bike and deffinatly not to race as if I have an accident and bump my head I am alot more likely to have a brain hemorage(not spelt right but who cares) than the average joe due to the medication im on. So no riding/racing for the next 5 to 6 months

[Str8 Jacket]

Fuck dude that sucks big time. Would rather have you alive and not racing than dead though!!

Five to six months is very livable ... and we rather like you breathing!!

echo Nasty here .. much better to take the time it takes then come back better & stronger than do a half arsed job that could kill ya ..

[Number One]

Poohs oh well you'll just have to make yourself useful around the house eh

So I finally got the last bits for the bike yesterday, a set of sexy new rearset's chucked them on and the temptation was just to much I had to get back on the horse, Rode her in to town and all is good.
was the most nervous I have ever been riding down maungaraki hill. There is a god 4 inches of chicken strips on both sides of both tyres.
One thing that has to be said though is, Fuck its fast. I kind of forgot how much of a weapon it really is.
5 months and 3 weeks to the day and I am allowed to race it.
but whos counting any way.

[Cajun]

Really good, heaps of adjustment. Only problem is they dont have a bracket for the rear brake light switch. Not a problem tough as long as you apply the front first, which almost every body does. A really good price to, cheaper than buying one foot peg hanger from a dealer.

You could do that but there is alot of holes in them that all have thread for bolts so it might be a bit of a fuck around. Also you cant really see the gold bits that are on them. Mostly black any any ways.
