Glad your new parts are coming along. In a year, you probably won't even be thinking about it!
But I don't want to wait that long. :D So far everything you have told me has been true though. Thanks again for all your help! And everyone else.

It's sort of like I tell people about having my other knee replacement - The good part was that I knew what to expect. And the bad part was that I knew what to expect ... :D

Things are really starting to come together for me! I started back to work on 6-2-2016. I worked 90 hours in 8 days. 7 12 hr shifts. And a half a day of safety training. My knee held up fine. I sit on my rear most of the time running the plant. Way more mental than physical.
Last night I took a short ride on my Tiger. No problems at all. It was only about 25 miles. So today it was time to try the ST. 100 miles later and one of the best chicken fried steaks I have ever had, I am back home. I'm not sure when this grin is going to come off of my face. My knee feels better than it has in a long long time! I can ride again.
Thanks to everybody for your kind words and support!

Glad to hear you are doing good. And glad yours went so much smoother than mine did. And yes mine seems to improve everyday also.

Good to hear you are back to riding your bikes, comfortably. :)
Hope to see you at an event soon.
Don't let them use you up at work. ;-)
