    Default Bummer - No riding for me for a while, Left Hand in a cast!

    Looks iike I'm not going to be riding for awhile, and to top it off I'm left handed. Tired and hurting, cant figure out how to rotate the pic 90 degrees counter-clockwise on my tablet.

    Can understand your pain. One of the reasons I'm on a due to a massively broken leg in '13 (dual sport accident) and then a Lt. foot re-construction (work/health issue) in '15. Hope you heal up fast and well!! Mac

    Default Bummer

    Cheer up. Heal up. I had shoulder replacement done last August 1st. Had to cancel SpyderQuest trip. Followed orders/therapy and was able to ryde to our fall club meeting before parking it for winter. Hope you heal well.

    Well, that's a bummer. As someone else asked, what did you do to deserve that impressive cast thingie? I recall falling off a bike while in college and accordion pleating my left arm - five breaks. I'm left handed as well and I really got tired of hearing, "Oh well, it's only your left arm."

    I also hope it heals quickly and will be as good as new.

    After wishing you good luck and heal fast all I can say is the throttle is on the right side and they appear to have left you your thumb which is all you need on an SE6.
