It's mostly at night if I lie on that side. The head of the lag screw 
creates a pressure point. During the day it's rarely noticeable. For 
example I put the studded winter tires on today and had no problems wuth 
all the kneeling to position the jack, sitting to guide the tire on the 
studs, standing to torque the nuts, carrying the summer tires to in back 
of the shed, etc. Over the summer I was putting on 25 to 30 miles a week, 
mostly on mountain trails with no problem. 

The operation itself only requires two small incisions so it's minimally 
intrusive. I was up with a walker the next day. I took a Tylenol before 
the excursion but didn't notice any effect so I didn't bother after that. 

It took several months to get back to normal. I spent the time in rehab 
researching trike conversions or sidecars for the bikes j.i.c. I started 
with a push bike to get the required range of motion. The first few 
outings weren't very graceful on the dismount but I got the hang of it. 
Both the V-Strom and DR650 are pretty tall but with the Sportster I can 
step over the saddle.
