Congrats on the new scooter and the only thing you're gonna want to ride for 24 hrs after your clip is your ice bag!

Welcome back
Ditto, just take it easy and you'll be on the bike the next day, the pain is minimal.

Congrats on the SG! I feel your excitement after being "out of the saddle" while you were tending to more important matters. We've got ourselves a litter, sold all my toys a few years ago to upsize the home and get the kids a pool, as soon as those hurdles were jumped the wife & I were at the dealer picking up our SG. Kids first but now you've got that permanent grin!

Thanks all for the messages.

And you all really think I'll even feel like getting on the bike in a day or two?

I'm a cop, and tomorrow is my "Monday" and the doctor isn't even letting me work this week.
