Hi. Have had my 6 week check up, all was good. I am very lucky I am not on any medication. I would like to know if anyone else on here has ridden after they received a pacemaker. I was told That I could but would still like to hear if anyone has had any problems riding. Thanks.

Good to know that you're healthy and healing and ready for the road again! 
Here is a past link from this site to copy and paste with some discussion on motorcycle riding:

Hi Lavender. Thanks for the link. Looks like we can ride into the sunset.

I am just a passenger, but we put on bout 15000 km a year. We don’t have much time left to ride as I am 80 and my husband is 79.

I still ride motorcycles on the street .I'm getting ready to start racing mini's again (150cc pitbikes)  on a paved tracks. I still ride my gravel bike on mountain bike trails. Was thinking about wearing a motocross type chest protector over my leathers on the minis for extra protection in case of a crash. I have been riding for close to 50 years and not ready to give up 2 wheels yet.

You know you're wired when...

You read consumer reports before upgrading to a new model.
