Yeah but I'm getting a little old for doing front flips over hoods. Besides with an extra 3 pounds of titanium in your pelvis that perfect 50/50 weight distribution just goes to pot.

I know that 'off balance' feeling Ben, I lost 8kg off the right side, arm and muscles, so that I use a 6kg shoulder bag on the right to walk straight.

That just ain't right.

At least you didn't call it a man purse.

It was actually a Ducati bum bag, with 8kg of No.6 shot, very fashionable.

I just want to make it clear before reading the following that I cannot complete relate to what either or you went through and give my sympathy based on a few family related trajedies.

Its good to take what is considered an impediment and figure out a way to conceal or overcome it by enhancing other personal attributes just take Theodore Roosevelt and his nephew FDR as an example.

I apologize that I wasn't aware of this sooner considering how often I check up on this website otherwise wouldn't be so verbally so harsh in other topics.

I'm glad you survived in a recoverable physical condition and impecible mental health. Not to mention that the assailent got caught. Looking forward to more debates every now and then.

Anybody looking for a fixer upper? Most of it should buff right out.

If you look hard you shoulds be able to see the tweaked rear swing arm.

Yesterday was the best day since Dec. 23 as I placed a deposit on an 06 Tiger. Not the color I wanted (silver) but it is virtually new, well farkled and very well maintained for not much more than the 5 year older ones that are the color I wanted were with less options. In other words, the deal was too good to pass up although I'm kind of scared to use it and keep it outside as she is pretty much perfect. I think I probably could start riding soon as the leg is getting stronger every day.

Ben,

Is this what you're getting?

benebob · #**117** 02-23-2013, 09:46 AM

That be what I totaled and what I'm getting. Don't worry, you couldn't touch the ground on it so I won't insist you take it for a spin at Reading.

40 inch inseam? No need for that the 34.5-35.5inch seat height just barely lets me with my 33 inch inseam get one flat footed, the other on tippy toes on the flat.
