"The Mistress No More"

[HansO]

Yeah got arm set, less pain but not allowed to use even my hand as there is still a little gap which Orthoped' is confident will close up as muscle swelling recedes, X ray again in Fortnight if knitting has started i will then just have an upper arm brace, if no knitting he said he might have to go in and plate it so fingers crossed
Yes she is a Sorry Sight but I am dam glad that while it was airborne and obviously tumbling that it didn't hit me or land on me, there are some heavy impact scares there

 

[Claviger]

No **** man, the Rocket would not be comfortable to have bounce off your brain case
Glad things are moving along on your road to recovery!

 

[hoopla]

Hanso, what a terrible sight, you look a good deal better Sounds like you're getting along well enough given the circumstances.
Hope things go well for you in your healing,

Hoopla

Dang Hans, I haven't been hanging around much lately so I missed this thread. Good luck on a speedy and complete recovery. We don't bounce as good as we used to. Since you are healing I will spare ya the who-what-where routine and go back and read the thread. That way I will feel better about asking stupid questions later.........

Just got some pictures sent to me from the yard where the bike is in Hay, found out why it had not been moved -- somehow someone got their wires crossed and they thought I was organising the shipping of the bike, anyway here is a couple of pictures of a very sad Mistress

Ouch! No like on this one.
Looks like a flat rear tire. Wonder because of the tumble or the other way around?

 

[HansO]

check the picture of rear rim I think those buckles in the edge of rim might give you a hint, tyre was inflated when I left road

depending on whether its written off, which I suspect it will be and how long I am of work I will more than likely get something smaller and lighter like a Tiger 800 XCx which I was hoping to get once I got my debt under control, if that does happen there will be some Rocket spares up for sale as I have heaps of service spares a parts but first I will have get back to work as I might end up having to live of that insurance money once I exhaust all my Leave options at work but we will cross that bridge when we get there, weird as it seems even thou I am now in a more comfortable cast I only slept about 2 hours last night ...... geeez the things that go thru your mind when you are laying not sleeping

Man Hanso I too have been thinking about the Tiger 800 for a while now. So many places we go have roads the Rocket can't travel on safely. Well that and we know I'm old and scrawny

Well that and we know I'm old and scrawny : D

And I will second that and also add Warp likes to tip the old sauce bottle
