Sorry too hear about your wife Jim, lets hope something can be sorted out for her,

Chris.

Update.........Wife still the same but has been referred to a specialist in London so we are off to see him early next week. Managed to keep hold of the bike for now but cant afford to do the tyre cx and service needed to get it back up and running now I am supporting Sue's would be wage! Great weather and all I can do is watch and weep. Oh well at least I still own my gorgeous SP

do they think she's damaged some nerves or summat??
they can get snarled up a bit when your arm hangs loose.
if so it might take ages to get over it
i was lucky when i did mine, it just popped back in (and out again!) didn't really have any complications - it can be a nasty injury.
very painfull at the least.

best regards to the mrs anyway bud, hope it goes well

Yeh B+H they have either cocked up when putting the shoulder back in or she caused some serious nerve damage during the accident either way its a trip to London to find out! To me (engineers view so may be way out) the right shoulder looks a lot lower than the injured left, I am edging my bets towards a bodged job.

Well I got it wrong, the doctor down in London did a full nerve test and although the readings are weak she should get most if not all movement back within 12 weeks . So apart from being completely brassic so still not able to sort the bike out things are A ok

That's sounding a little better Jim Lets hope they can get it sorted out,

Chris.

That's sounding better news Jim.
All the best for a speedy recovery for the poor Girl.

Thanks for all your kind words, I got the SP up and running yesterday and gave it a quick 1 mile run up the road (dare not go further as the rear tyre is aboslutely shot from last burnout ) god it felt nice. Just need to scrape together enough readies to service, fix speedo and put two new tyres on

Back for good (well until they tell me otherwise) start a new job in aircraft development on 28th so should be more stable then out of the mob next year Desperate for some extra cash to get the SP up and legal again

Glad to hear swmbo is going to be ok.

Not selling it to you, you trash Beamish's ex bikes In fact I am not selling it full stop (well unless I get dealt yet another shi* hand )

So what part of the country are you shouting from now Jim?
You thought you might be in my neck of the woods come summer.Are you local or in foreign lands north of Brum?

Back in Lincolnshire for the forseeable,once I get the SP legal and serviced I will be out and about as much as family life allows.
