Kat817 19 Posted March 17, 2007 I was riding as a passenger within 10 days----but not alone. If my recovery was anything like yours will be, it shouldn't be a problem. Within a month I felt 100% normal---and several pounds lighter! That is one of the first ways my DH said the weight loss really made itself evident, was we had space between us when we went for a ride!!! Good luck!!

TracyinKS 7 Posted March 17, 2007 Shouldn't be a problem! You aren't picking it up and carrying it...... your RIDING!

RidinMyHDDream 1 Posted March 17, 2007 I was on mine within a month and had no problems. In fact I noticed that it was easier too minus the weight. Looking forward to that feeling as the pounds go down even more! We also have a posting for Banded Bikers II in the support section. Stop by and say 'Hi'. :peace: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimsretro 0 Posted March 17, 2007 I had surgery on Friday and went riding my 1300 on Sunday. It really all depends on you and how well you feel. Rubber Side down and blue skies to all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
