      Right? no actually, not at all. This is something of a personal statement/feeling I would think more so. Live you life more doesnt have to include riding a bike at 200mph, thankfully!

    You really have to love what you do to get back on a bike after that. I shattered my spine on a famous road in California, USA ( Ortega Highway ) and had to come back from that. I am very blessed to have the opportunity to still ride and so are you! Never give up on your dreams! Glad we can ride again!
    Ride Safe!

      @@dean0368 Hi Giby, first up glad to see you're considering getting back on two wheels. I lost the use of my left arm in an accident 26yrs ago, I've been back riding for 23yrs now, currently on a GSXR1000. Let me know which arm you've lost and either I can help or a guy I know who lost his right arm who got back into riding after after seeing what I had done.
