I have been reading nothing but good things on this post about the 600 ho. I was in the processing of removing all the components necessary to install the tunnel protectors and studs.

Then this past wed. I broke my leg :0: , and displaced my ankle playing soccer. I was in the emergency room till 1 am. Now I have to wait to see a specialist on Monday morning to find out if I need surgery, and have pins put in for support.

The pain wasn't so bad, it was that fact that the first thing I said when I was laying on the ground, was SH**, my rev only has .3 miles on it how the hell am I going to ride now.

I had trips planned for almost every weekend through the first of march for myself and my buddies. Now I have to back out on them because of this damn broken leg.

I guess the only upside is the drugs I get to take. Other than that, I am so pissed I can't even look at my sled in the garage.

That sucks, man! Sorry to hear that.

How long will you be on the injured reserve list?

When you get all fixed up figure out a way to keep your foot warm and ride!
I broke my leg real bad when I was younger and had a full leg cast, but I kept riding my CR250 Dirt Bike standing up :D

Was hard but you can do it........

Good luck on the leg!

Man, bummer! You may have to trade the rev in for a regular sled so you can straighten your leg out. Hummm? A down side to the rev design.......

very funny, no its not for sale....I have to ask the surgeon what is possible. I really want a walking cast but I can't even touch my foot right now..... I am a die hard, keep your eye open for me coming down the trail with a pillow duct taped around my cast
