Not good news but glad you both survived - time to chop it in

Agreed, smaller will definitely be better for you, for the time being at least.

Time for a change Tony, you can always get another Harley when you are fully fit again.

Ooh that’s not good. ☹️ But at least you can pretend to take the Micky out of me浪

Guys, I appreciate the comments and advice but I'm not giving up just yet. My reasoning is:

1. I really want to keep the bike, and now I'm exercising again I'm hoping to regain some strength (and I'm going to plan a long walk into my days in future, too).
2. I had exactly the same bike-drop with my R9T - there are some tight maneuvers on my patio. Frankly, it doesn't matter if a bike is 500lb or 700lb... if it's going to go, it's going to go.
3. It's too early to give up this particular fight, although I'll review the position in a couple of months. As it stands, though, my April trip is still on.
