Best wishes for a successful surgery and recovery. You're gonna love the new hinge. Work your butt off at PT and exercising at home, and you'll be back in the saddle in no time.

5 years on my new knee
You will be glad yup did it. Had a heck of a time convincing doctor to do it when i was 60. They wanted to wait for another 5 years. Glad we didn't. You won't either.

Best wishes. I'm sure everything will go well and I hope you are back in the saddle soon. I know what it's like to be out of action for an extended time. So stay positive and use getting back in the saddle as motivation! Best of luck.

Good luck on your surgery and recovery. My Dad had both knees done (not at the same time) and his advise is - EXERCISE, EXERCISE, EXERCISE. The more work you can give the new knee, the sooner you will be back on your Spyder again...

 New Knee
Congratulations on your new knee. I just had my right one replaced 23 Jan 2014. Doing the rehab thing now. You will be surprised how fast you will be able to get back on your Spyder. Im riding already (don't tell my wife). Just make sure you do the Physical Therapy exercise they give you. The most difficult part will be sleeping with your leg elevated and straight. Good luck, hang in there and welcome to the club. 2011 RT-S

Knee
I just had mine done last Tuesday, Excercise as much as you can. I have been able to move from crutches to a cane and sometimes I can walk without any aids and I am sure it will be better once I get my stapels out on Wed.

Have a Good Recovery
My mother-in-law just had her left knee replaced very recently and she just turned 79. The physical therapy is kind of tough for her but necessary. I'm trying to avoid a back surgery and one on my right knee. Those two issues will be the reason for going to my first Spyder from the two wheeler I now have. If it gets so bad that I'm not able to hold up a two wheeler I'm in for a new RT. Hope your recovery goes smoothly and quickly!!
