THis is just general call for any amputee riders and to show everyone my set up for riding with a fake left leg.

I use a Pingel electric shifter with hand controls for up and down shifts.

 

That's crazy. I was literally just thinking about this. Congrats on not letting anything stop you.

 

Dude yer still a 2 legged rider. ya still got yer 3rd leg right ? congrates on still riding

 

Pretty awesome man. Normal legged here, but there's a fairly well known stunter Ryan S from around here that lost his left leg below the knee, and is back into stunting and better than ever.

 

That's really damn sweet, man.

 

Thats a really cool setup. Good to know that there are things like that out there.

 

That's a great idea, cman. Like gump, I was recently wondering if this was possible.
At the time I was thinking about disabled veterans who'd like to ride but can't, and how you would solve that. This would be awesome.
I was also thinking you could build something for someone who can't use either leg. Maybe use a combined ABS on the front brake lever along with your shifting setup. You've probably thought this out already. Very cool man! I like it.

 

I saw a superbikes with Ryan S featured.

I know there are several people that feel I am against stunting and such, but it is because of them and drag racing that disabled folk have all the gadgets to keep riding.

My shifter is for drag racing. A third brake set up for stunting is used to move the brake for right leg amputee. For those I know missing hands they use reduced pull clutch levers.

Thanks to the internet there is a growing set of resources for folks.
Like I said earlier I know a mid 80 year old man that lost both his legs, so he converted his bike to a trike and installed hand controls for shifting and brake. He rides about 30k a year!

 

There is a guy in my area on a Black 08-09 CBR1000 and he is missing his right leg if memory serves... He has a handicap license plate and everything.... very very cool

 

If it was the episode that also featured the ice racing / stunt show, myself and a lot of friends were at that event. Good times.
