Re: [St] [ST] Biker ailments

glad to hear you are on the mend. Once walking do try something like
yoga to stretch it out and build the strength. Even stretching it now
will encourage blood flow and speed up healing.

FWIW, depending what your aiming for, like miles, then the ST would be
my choice of those mentioned. I have never been a fan of the Fazer,
there something decidingly boring about it.
Theres a lot of ZRX1200R's about. I hear great reports but people dont
keep them that long, which makes me wonder if they thrash them about
and then find little else.
The ST has a better fairing than both, gives both a better sports and
touring option but will probably need a few upgrades to make it what
you want.

Ultimately, it will be down to your need for the right foot position
during your rehab. That may be the deciding factor for you and i cant
help but think about looking at a Trailie as an option too.
