WOW...that's exactly the deal I'm look for. Like you I don't mind a few scratches from a light drop on the side. As long as nothing falls apart or mechanically wrong, I'd be fine with it. I was looking at and brand of bike that is below $6,000.

yea i checked for leaks and elec probs but everything was good. its in season rt now so prices are up a bit and the bikes go quick so when you find it you gotta move quick, but check ur local craigslist and im sure you will be able to find something. good luck!

Welcome back from the edge. Been there myself. Docs can make some great prosthetics that will help with that range of motion problem.

I know, I have them and they work great inside boots, just takes a bit to get used to riding a bit differently.

Stay strong and keep doing what you're doing, one day at a time.

Becky and Jae: you guys are tough! I just looked at both of your profile galleries... you've dealt with a lot. I hope neither of you suffer something like that again. I'm glad we're not immortal creatures: imagine the state we'd be in 300 years down the line: scars, titanium rods and punctures all over us
