Just got the 151 pretty much completely rebuilt/tuned up. Wednesday night last week, I destroyed my left leg. Bolt, plates, metal rod. Out for a while and no driving my jeep for a good while.

Ah yes, screws, pins, plates, Been there done that. Several times! :cry:

You will now be a very good weather forecaster. Don't try to rush the recovery. Things can go from bad to worse, I know it well.

Definitely plan on followng doctor and physical therapists orders to a T. This is more than I can stand already.

It gets better after a week or so, you get used to everything hanging on you and the pain starts going away as the swelling goes down. It will get better.
