Post 8 offers the best answer....wider handlebars.
Then, as for best practices, ask your surgery recovery doctors for movement & strength exercises.
Higher shoe heels, group rides, landing gear...maybe not so helpful?
Yet if the pain and/or your strength is an issue, time for a lighter new bike
Good luck with your recovery.

I've had rotator cuff surgery on the left and the right one is due next. Pick up a set of motorcycle drop guards https://motorcycledropguards.com/ and sign up for an advanced riding course at your local HD dealership. The advanced course is only a step up from the beginner course except you use your own bike.

Might try this......
