NGC Shoulder surgery??
« on: March 27, 2024, 07:23:21 AM »
I’m having a torn tendon in my left shoulder and a possible rotator cuff tear repaired with surgery on may 2nd.  Dr says 6 weeks in a sling.  Anyone here have this procedure done and if so how long can I expect to be off my motorcycle?  Thank you!

Yup , had both done about 6 Yrs. Apart . PT is the key both before & after surgery. It was a few years ago , so if my memory banks are working , about 4 to 8 weeks . I started out with baby steps /short rides & worked up .That said between surgeries I also went to a lighter bike for a bunch of reasons . Swapped a 1200r Beemer for a V7II that helped a lot . Since I’ve added a V7centanario to the shed . I’m very happy with both . Oh btw my pro date is 52 so downsizing was a good decision. The fun is back !
