Hi Mike,

I was wondering why I hadn't hear from you for sometime. After reading this post, I realize why. I am sorry to hear of your decision. I really did enjoyed riding with you to Maggie Valley. Please keep in touch and we WILL go for a coffee soon. BTW, still checking the mail for the DVD you sending me.. :).

It's also possible to relocate the clutch to the right side behind the throttle. I saw something like this on a beemer someone setup for a one armed rider.

Sorry to hear of your decision. No riding doesn't have to mean no more forum . . .

Wow...I hurt for you just reading your post. I had to give up baseball umpiring in 2010 due to a medical issue with my right eye...something I truly enjoyed doing, so I can certainly relate. It's a tough decision for sure...one we will all face at one time or another. I respect your courage in owning up to the safety of yourself and others. Best of luck to you and wherever your next road leads you...

Sorry to hear the news Mike. We've never met but maybe you'll make your way out to one of the gatherings, one way or another and we will meet. Take care Bro..
