Hi Guys,

thanks for your nice words. She has a meniskus surgery in January and she caught a Hospital germ. It's a big problem in Germany
because of their bad jobs in Hospital. Many people, around 30.000, dies every year in Germany on such germs.
Jeannette has a not high aggressive one and we hope that she can ride her bikes in the future again but it's a long way.
The picture shows Jeannette on her KR1S which we bought at the end of last year for her near Amsterdam. She always wants a bike which goes
over 200 km/h but now she can't ride it. She has also a S1A-400, W2TT, and a S1A-500 (in parts).

All the best from Germany
Ralf

Well hospital germ is a great trouble in any hospital in any country.
This explains why I go away of hospital very fast: stayed only 2 days and an half when I broke my ankle on 3 parts some years ago. Signed a discharge on the hall of the hospital :lol:
But think this should be better for Jeannette now?

slide blocked on one carb (H2A) on 2007. Was starting from a traffic light and was around 15MPH did as I alway did in this case, pushed on the starter with my thumb and usually the engine stopped, didn't work and used the front brakes on the same time, the fork went at 35° degre, fallen and my left foot hitted a tyre of a car parked on the street: ankle broken in 3 parts, no bike during some time and then was riding with my clutches along the bike (one on each side with sandow, used my 125cc Yamaha AS3 Europa as it was easier to drive) :mrgreen:

Wow! I had a stuck throttle on a H1, 1970, big crash, and for those who say you can't lock a H1 front drum brake, well I managed that a couple of times.. lay in bed for 3 days, after pushing it home, on that occasion.................. Funny in retrospect!! :crazy: Haven't ridden a bike with crutches, tho!!
