vfr sidecar wheelchair driven by quadriplegic...youtube vid

Very cool. Lots of thought and ingenuity there. Rock on.
Be careful out there.

 

This is the best thing I've seen here for a while.........

 

cool...we've got throttle set up now...i'll let you'all know how it works out on tomorrows test ride. if it works good,i'll post a pic

 

"Kudos for keeping the dream alive." x2

 

In Empire Strikes Back Darth Vader said " Impressive. Most impressive!" I think that would apply here as well. I hope you have all the fun in the world on your ride. Congrats!

 

Absolutely the shiznit. Nice work man. Nice ingenuity.

 

thanks guys...i knew you viffer guys could appreciate all that has been done to make the monster work...

today i put a few miles on it testing it out....i must have done a good job setting it all up in design because this thing handles great,and tracks straight with easy steering. crucial on a sidecar rig.

it handles alot easier than my last bike attached to the sidecar which was set up by some pro's.....im truly stoked about my new beast...


so much power that i only have it set up for half throttle...maybe one day with more drive time i'll unleash this badboy with the full throttle setting....better safe than sorry for now though.

 

for those wondering...the throttle that worked best for me was an elbow throttle so i could keep both hands on steering etc. in the pics above,you can see a long blue pad on the right side of sidecar...thats what worked out well after testing a couple other ways...im already getting used to it after 3 rides....so DMV,HERE I COME!!!

 

vfr sidecar finally ready for road

 

it brakes excellent....the sidecar is a front wheel off a vf700 same wheel as vfr..im only running one caliper on the sidecar wheel and one caliper on the vfr front wheel....im using the antidive side caliper on the vfr...the reason for one caliper per wheel is so the brake doesnt bottom out bcause it cant fill all 3 calipers adequitly
