Not even close , just found out ( from the orthopaedic guy ) that my latest bone graft ( 2 years ago ) has never taken and I have a " non union" femur.... that is broken . The graft is only held in place by soft tissue and is " mobile " that is I can move the break . Sorta explains why its real hard to put weight on and why its real sore...........so we are back to chopping it off. I have to go see 2 Dr's , one with a view to fitting a long stem knee replacement and the other to plan the amputation so I can get a plastic leg , and the chances of getting a usable stump are slim at best.

Re: Fuel tank leak
had a close friend went through the same thing. He got lucky,if you call having your leg bones skewered for 6 months and then 6 more months of grueling therapy lucky. Today two knee replacements later he can still walk on his own and two wives later he still rides. One of my oldest friends I've known since high School. My first Ducati I got from him,a 74 gt

The old man replies: "Yeah. When I was in the Navy, I got really drunk one night and had sex with a parrot. I thought you might be my son."
