Sean….. rest, get well and straighten the bike. Don’t make any decisions until later.

Sean…… Just read your most recent post. Great to see you are mending and moving forward. Seems like the insurance company is being fair? Good luck with the repairs and post here if you have any difficulties finding anything! Given your location, Yamiya might be a good option? John D.

Thanks for the support guys.

Both I and the bike are well on the road to full recovery, though my right hand is still a bit sore and stiff.

A rhino horn, Andy? Is that to keep others at a safe distance? 😁 Mine survived, but thanks for the offer.
