wuz up everybody? i was watching sportbike and i saw a disabled guy riding a zx-7 with these balance wheels. they were mounted on each side of the bike. when the rider slowed to under 10mph, they hydraulicly lowered. i am a disabled veteran who would like to ride again. if i can get my hands on this contraption, i will be rolling. if anybody can give me some info, it would be a great help

Also known as "Retract-a-Trike" for the giant cruisers that need help at slow speeds or stops...

The trackside distributor for Pirelli tires at Miller Motorsports Park, Aaron Lanningham, is a paraplegic. But he doesn't let that stop him from riding:

I'm not sure if he fabricated his "training wheels" or if they were built by someone else, but needless to say, they work. You can reach him at 801-244-2149.
