back on the bikes,sort of...
I have finally started physical therapy on my fingers and wrist,that shit hurts,but I rode the Turbo bike to work the other day(w/my removable brace on),I could only twist about 1/4 throttle,but that's plenty.I rode my 12 also,and the throttle is a lot harder to twist on that bike.I had to order a new clutch cover becuase of a hairline crack leaking oil(on the 12).Every day my hand and fingers move more and more thank god,I just hope I don't crash one of these bikes again,I lost 30lbs of muscle in 3 mos,that sucks,and if you weigh it all out,it's almost not worth it.I still may sell one of the bikes,but I need a drag shock for the blackbird and try it again at the strip before I make a decision.One things for sure,I will have the bird set up right before I run it at the track again,there's just no cheap way to do it.And,it still bothers me when I think of the crash,and I found out that the intake tube popped off at the end of the run right before I went down,I remember seeing the shift light come on,then hearing a pop,then my ass sliding down the track.

"physical therapy" - That is just a word that allows for people to legally torture someone!!!:P PT really bites!
"and if you weigh it all out,it's almost not worth it"......I can relate.....Yeap! I have thought that a couple times also.........but, I go back to the track and just sit and watch my buddy's race and that it almost just as painfull.
Glad to see you bouncing back and riding.
