Woffinden, 36, announced his retirement from the sport six weeks ago after needing more surgery on his shoulder, 16 months after almost being killed in a horror crash in Krosno.
But wacky Woffy says he is now contemplating getting his kit-off just like he did for a photo shoot in Poland a decade ago, only covering his crown jewels with his Monster Energy crash helmet.
The most successful British rider in history revealed: “If I get naked it would show people all my scars to prove why I needed to call it a day.
“There’s about three or four foot of scars on my body over the years from so many injuries. It might be a bit too X-rated.

“Anders Thomsen has got his kit-off twice after his two Grand Prix wins. But he kept his pants on the p***y!”
Woffy was a guest of honour at the BOLL FIM World Cup Final and did a lap of the track with fellow multiple World Champ Ove Fundin and Jarek Hampel.
But he is clearly still finding it hard to adjust to life following his retirement.
He added: “I need to find myself as a person, who I am without motorsport. That’s going to take some time.

“I’ve been pretty busy since I announced my retirement, mainly sorting all my stuff out.
“I’ve been shipping stuff back out to Australia, personal effects and household items. There’s also been selling motorbikes.
“It’s been emotional, especially with the bikes. I didn’t think I’d feel emotional about it. I had the emotion when the retirement video went out.
“The bikes and everything in my workshop went to one person. It felt real then.
“I could stay involved in the sport if I wanted to. I have thought that far ahead moving forward.
“In Warsaw at the World Cup final they wanted me to do a lap on the track with Ove and Jarek, which was cool.
“There was a lot of activation for Monster Energy which I’m always happy to do and I enjoy that.
“They brought all the new staff out, I was with them to have a chat. On raceday we had the Monster Energy Rig Riot.

“After the event they had a couple of guys from their motorsport Dakar side and my wife Faye and I took them out for dinner. It was a really cool weekend.
“It was nice to be there. When I was racing they’d have former champions turn up now and then like Tony Rickardsson or Jason Crump. I’m happy to be involved in that way too.
“I feel like I’ll have a similar role in years to come. I had the track walk and I was like f*** I wish I was riding.”
Woffinden has assembled a strong field for his illustrious send off with a glittering array of gold medalists Ryan Douglas, Chris Holder, Max Fricke, Tom Brennan, Jaimon Lidsey and Niels-Kristian Iversen.
