>>>>Tell ya what - 6 months and I still cant put weight on my right leg....so much for motorbikes. Problem isn't so much the bike - it's the other idiots on the road. I need something safer - like a nice 70's Lotus Europa for example. (now picture the girly girls in my house with hands on hips, tapping foot, and look of utter contempt as I attempt to explain that).

>>>Not sure how safe a Europa would be, and visibility might be even less than a scooter :( The whole car being below the hood line of many trucks.

>>Hey you're supposed to be helping - not feeding the girlygirls ammunition!

>>>If you've still got a sore leg how would you even get in & out of one?
>>
>>Oh I am an expert at that. I'm skinny and have had years of practice via my x/19's haha. Plus you see it's bigger than a scooter I can even paint it yellow - everyone will notice it compared to a scooter. (hands no longer on hips - now swinging around in the air)

>If you can't put any weight on your right leg, you can't drive (?) How would you brake? So the girls are doing all the driving - don't they get any say in what they drive? ;)

I would be better than if it was my left leg and had to clutch all the time. And eventually my leg will heal haha. I think I could probably push a break peddle ok right now as long as I didn't have to hold it too long.

>G'wan, get them that pink New Beetle cabrio they've been jonesing for :)

That would be nice - but at the moment they have a cadillac escalade - which FYI guzzles gas like crazy - and gas ain't too cheep out here either.
