As they say here in Japan, "O-daiji-ni kudasai". Without a translation: it means to encourage your best of health. Please be patient. My sister has had similar surgery. It could take some time and patience. Please be careful, despite your predilection towards great vigour.

I use a moto for daily transportation to work — a 1991 Yamaha SRX-4 (3VN1) 400 cc single: 4 valves OHC, primary and secondary carbs, mono shock, Al swing arm, dry sump, oil cooler blah blah — soda-kinda a production cafe racer. (You can look it up and mine may even show up on the net.)

I am sure you will love riding, and your gas mileage will be outstanding. And because it's new, it will not cost you a dime. Mine was bought with 25K Km and some years on it. I can't say that it has been cheap to run. MC parts cost a fortune these days — not like when you and I started to ride.

I'll be looking forward to seeing that Bianchi. In the meantime, you and Mrs Jawa enjoy Jamaica. Relax and soak up some health.

BTW: as I was rooting around in my bike garage today, I was thinking about you!
