Currently working on learning how to walk again, after my second ride on my tdm ended with major fractures and a new titanium rod in my left leg. Looking forward to getting it repainted and throwing knobby tires on it, once I can get back to work.

Wet grass and street tires don't mix well. It's been a long five months with more to go, but I'm patiently waiting to start working on my new bike again. Plenty of work to do too. At least for a bike with only 16k miles on the clock...

Thank you so much. It's going well I suppose. The boredom is the worst, besides the financial hit.

Hope all goes well for both you and the bike. I also have had experience of wet grass but not as bad as yours.

It's crazy that the least severe wreck I've had on a bike, caused the most damage. I've walked away from some gnarly wipeouts, but this is the first time I had to belly crawl away from one. Completely shattered tib/fib about 4" above ankle and also had a clean break just below the knee.

Hope you have a speedy recovery. As we get older, we don't bounce so well.
The best thing about being old is we did all our stupid stuff before the Internet was invented, so there’s no proof.

Im trying to create something along the lines of a cross between a Yamaha MT01 and a ducati Diavel

Although I do think nuts bolts and welding would be better than masking tape for holding it all together....
