Hi I2Fast4U:

 

I appreciate you asking!

 

I mostly just earned an education you can't get from any school:

  • I learned the value of knowing what's up ahead.
  • I learned the importance of a chest protector and helmet.
  • I learned not to drive into rock walls (especially in fifth) anymore.

Apparently I didn't know these things before the accident. :rolleyes:

 

Every once in a while my back bothers me. If I sit or stand without back support for a while I'll have a feeling in my upper right back that feels like a hot tub jet on it. It's not as pleasant as it sounds. I just don't know how else to describe it. I just change positions to feel better. An exercise regimen and a lot of luck has got me this far.

 

The good news is that I'm riding and doing all the things I want to do. I'm just a *lot* more cautious now.

 

Oh yeah... and despite recommendations from some people... I have no intention of even trying to sue Yamaha. That just pisses me off! If the throttle would have stuck or some mechanical defect caused the accident that would be different. I am pretty sure I didn't get all I deserved for being stupid, but any chronic injury I suffer is my own fault.

 

You guys are great! I'm certain the support you all provide contributed greatly to my recovery! Thank you!

 

 

Regards,

Bill

Thats good to hear Bill, too many people in our society think life should be foolproof and if they do something stupid it's got to be someone elses fault. It's refreshing to hear you say you screwed up. I'm also glad to hear you're doing better and riding. Sorry you had to learn from the School of Hard Knocks. :)
