I feel your pain, literally. I had my TC for 6 days. I went to get it inspected and pulling into the parking lot of the station there was a crater I didn't see which I hit just as I stopped. The bike bounced left and I was surprised to have the 940lb beast heading for the pavement. It took everything I had to drag it back up. I didn't drop it but just as it straigtened up something in my wrist popped and it hurt like hell. I got the bike inspected and home. The swelling began and X-rays didn't show a break. That was two weeks ago as of tomorrow. I've been doing all of the work I wanted to do on the bike such as installing protection bars for the bags, detailing it etc. but I can't ride and I can barely type on a keyboard. Thankfully I'm right handed. Thursday I head into the hand clinic. I'm guessing an MRI is next. I am hoping it is only a bad sprain or pulled ligaments but if I'm unlucky I tore one and my riding season is done.Man, I got close last week. Gravel parking area, backed in. A second's inattention and a split second off the hand brake and the bike rolled back a bit and it was off balance. Used every bit of strength I had to keep it from dropping and got her back up. Jeez I was concerned. Whew!
