Crump cancelled all of his commitments for this week at Poland, Sweden and the UK. “The doctors said the ligament and tissue damage in my shoulder will take time to repair,“ said Crump. “With daily treatment I will be okay to ride shortly. My shoulder was put back in its socket in Sweden and let me tell you it was painful.”
The Australian racer is currently 6th in World Championship Standings. He has used K&N Engineering products for years.
“I will be back in action at Denmark,” he said. “I will make round four of the 11 round Grand Prix.”
