moto_rph 177 Posted September 5, 2022 Happy Labor Day! To celebrate my newfound day off, I decided to try a ride on my 1200GSA. I have to admit, it was with much trepidation, since I had a complete knee replacement last month. But 5 weeks without riding was causing withdrawal symptoms, so without bothering anyone else to come along, I decided to go solo. Can I get on and off? Can I hold this beast up? Lots of thoughts going through my head. So, after a nice 25-mile ride, all I could think of was an old monk telling David Carridine, "Patience grasshopper" The knee is doing well, but having my right foot on the peg, was still causing a mild stretch.....fine at first, but after 25 miles the knee started protesting. I at least managed to quell the withdrawal symptoms temporarily, and you just managed to read the weakest ride report of the year....but IT WILL GET BETTER👌 @Zubb, I'm feeling your pain! Now I need to find some ice and watch some old episodes of Kung Fu.... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
