How soon after surgery can you ride again?

I don't ride my own bike yet, I'm currently a passenger on my husbands Harley Roadking. But I enjoy riding a lot, and was wondering how soon I'll be able to go again. My birthday is next month, I was going to take my rider's safety course, and get a bike then, is that too soon? I was sleeved on the 7th, and am looking to ride alone on October 28th.

I would love to go for a ride again soon, but don't when when it is safe.

Thanks

Sarah

I don't think that riding the bike will hurt just as soon as you feel up to it - HOWEVER - you ARE still healing and should you take a tumble it MAY produce MORE injuries than it would otherwise. I'd wait a month or two at least. JMHO

I waited about 4 months to ride mine, we have a Goldwing and the weather had more to do with it than anything.
