Amazing!
I`d make use of that hardware for memorabilia....Say on the side upholstery of tha seat for the studded look...or maybe front guard strengthener? (though the screws might be a bit long). You`re looking good to me. Cheers.

 :hi: Peace, health and happiness to you and your family Mark. You are NOW on that road to full recovery :good2:

Make use of the hardware in some way... :mail1:  :scratch_one-s_head:

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in an attractive & well preserved body...but rather to slide in sideways, body completely worn out and and with your last dying breath screaming, "HOOOYA LIFE, lets try that again"!!!

All I can say is? WOW, Glad your recovering and seems like its? Quickly, That's awesome, And I hope your recovery continues to progress, Back in 89' I had a lady in a car cut me off while I was riding on my motorcycle and I ended up in the hospital for 6 months and 2 years of therapy, sorry no pics to share of this one, Totaled my bike, and one month before I was released from therapy, I bought another motorcycle and rode it to where I was getting my therapy, when I was getting off the bike and taking off my helmet, my therapist was standing there, and she ask me, "are you stupid?", with a smile on my face, I replied, "I love to ride", she just shuck her head and walked inside

Shawn,

As demonstrated by your therapist, those who don't ride just don't get it.

Here's more details of the surgery. They accomplished a "simulated" surgery on me first to see how everything aligns after movement. They needed to break the entire roof of my mouth and move it. They had to remove about 4.5 inches of leg bone to make up my lower jaw. They created a template to ensure exact cuts. This technology is absolutely amazing! The doctor said the bone fit perfectly into the jaw. Physical therapy starting today on the leg for at least 4 weeks.

Note the nasty [healed] fracture in the right eye socket! :shok:

Wishing the best through your recovery, one day at a time. In 82 I had a nasty spill on a YZ465 off a jump in a race. Head hit a good sized rock split my moto 3 helmet and I had my first and severe concussion. Short term memory loss for 4 months. Couldn't remember conversations 2 hrs after I had them, 2 to 3 days later I could remember bits and pieces of it. Long story short end of racing career, and another one like that I could end up like that the rest of my life. I ride cause I love it, can't explain it. Its just would I like and enjoy.
Keep It upright and on two wheels guys.

Much relieved to hear you are doing well.  Welcome back to the states where we do have the best doctors in the world.

Wonder if the Hungarian hardware was originally removed form a scrapped Russian MIG before being "recycled" for medical use? :lol:
