Thanks for asking Dave. It is an ugly situation. Because the surgery to remove the broken screw (from the 5/2/11 surgery to fix the fracture) & reconstruct my foot would be so instrusive, the plan is to immobilize it and do a wait-and-see. Isn't that great?!?
I go back on 12/2/11 for an evaluation. it if looks to be healing on its own then we leave it alone (for how much longer I don't know). If it isn't healing (and so far it is not), then I'll have the reconstructive surgery in late December, and the recovery from that will be 4 to 6 months they say.
So it's a REALLY good thing I jettisoned my 2011 'vert 6MT and got my 2012 6AT coupe. It's difficult getting in and out of it with a cam boot on (bangs around the door/frame, and you can't 'point' your toe any), but I can drive it just fine.

For a few seconds there, i really believed i was gonna see some spy shots......but then dissapointment hit, i'm still trying to recover. Back on meds.
Good one there Eric, i see all this time off you're getting has turned you into a real post *****. Hope things get better for you soon. I'm having my days as well, got a shot of cortisone in my lower back few weeks back, and still trying to go about my regular activities.

A friend showed me a great upgrade last night: Go-Kart wheels & tires (about 8 to 10" diameter and 5 inches wide). With the right offset those suckers would look good on this scooter.
Or maybe Lawn tractor tires. Those might work well also. Will post pics if I do anything radical like that.
