well its almost time. finishing up at the office today (car sales suck right now--no calls), getting ready to have the neck surgery ay 8 friday am. i'm having an "anterior cervical diskectomy". basically 2 discs coming out to relieve numbness in right arm and hand. cleaned the bike up, put it on the charger, and said goodbye for what i guess will be at least 10-12 weeks. it really goin to suck but i know it will be better once its' all finished. just trying to keep the "positive outlook". thanks

That sucks. Had a lumbar diskectomy on my L3/L4 space back in April '08. Off the bike for 12 wks (you can do the math...)and it sucked, but feel great now. Good luck and speedy recovery!

Good luck to you Sparky01.

With the help of the pain pills that time will fly by. Do what your doctor says and you will be on your two feet and your two wheels in no time!

We said goodbye to riding a couple of months ago, and have a couple more due to weather. However, good luck on your surgery!
