Oh that is lucky, I didn't really have a choice. Hope you'll be able to get on the exercise bike for some light spinning - it definitely helped me.
I was up and hobbling around almost straight away, which is a plus for the metalwork but fuck me, was it painful for the first few weeks... I remember riding over to Royal Stanmore Orthopedic hospital on my then new GSXR1000K5 with crutches taped to the fairing for a consult and they were not very impressed. Left leg, so changing gear and getting off the side stand were not easy.
