I wish you a speedy recovery. I have thought what if? and I would ride a trike. I still want the wind in my face and the freindship that the riders have. If you are feeling down let the people here on cf know we will give you all the help and suport you need. Do not give up on your dream. Best of luck to you and hope to see you riding soon.

First off you are truly an inspiration to others, just for the will to get back on and ride.

There are new bikes that have electronic paddle shift transmissions so the shifting won't be an issue. Balancing the bike at a stop is something that will be hard, but I did see a Goldwing that had electronic outrigger wheels that extended at under 5 mph and retracted above that. That is always an option. But, from your spirit, I would say that you won't need them.

Godbless and get back on soon!

You will be riding again and it is your will and determination that makes it so...perhaps sooner than later.

I have no doubt that you will continue to be an inspiration to others in many ways through sharing what you have been through and your perseverance in finding the way to make it work. The road isn't goin' anywhere and will be waiting for you. God Bless.

Lionelg, it's your lucky day, as i am a peg-leg rider. Lost rt. leg a/k back in 1976. I had a VW home built trike for a while. It was ok but not what i was used to. BTW i was in a crash on a KZ900 Kawasaki. YOU CAN STILL RIDE, man it's not the end of the world. If you are going to get back on a Harley, it can be done. If you want to ride again this season, here is what i would do if you have the means to do it. First get a bike you can live with, find a Voyager Trike Kit, this is the removable kit. Balance will be an issue till you get a prosthesis that fits well... That's where the trike kit comes in. You will most likely need a Kliktronic electric shifter. It makes your shifter a push button shift. You need encouragement, man you came to the right place. If i cant push you along enough myself, all these other folks will help. I will assist you any way i can Lionel. I've got 36yrs. experience with a prosthesis. I currently ride a Dyna LowRider, with out any special equipment , just so you know life is not over after amputation. Anything you need Brother, just let me know, through messages. You don't have to lose this season, unless you are just not ready. Do remember that.

Sorryabout the loss of your leg. I have no advise as a disabled rider since i am not, however your attitude is awesome! I know it sucks to not be able to ride (although not the reasons your dealin with), but keep goin, mindset is half the battle and I believe you'll find a way to ride your iron horse again, good luck man.

and keep it up.

I  you...alot of people would've given it up sooo you are a true road warrior....However the term Disabled Riders ? I see you as temperairely physicaly challenged......Cause you ARE up for the challenge and big enough to see the value in asking for input...... Very nice Bro.
RandyJoe...Ride Strong...

Guy I ride with has MS - but he has a custom built trike that with controls mounted on the bars so he doesn't have to use his legs. That guy rides in all kind of weather and doesn't let his lack of movement stop him for one little minute.
Don't give in to the handicaps that life throws your way - overcome them and become a stronger person for it.

Never say never...you make me proud. My advise, stay away from negative people and attitudes. You want to ride....ride.  There has to be a way to get you on the bike again. I wish you all luck and don't give up you'll find your way. Happy riding

chin up dude ,all the best .
