Thought I would post a picture of my ST LTD with my wheelchair carrier. It works great!
looks like a great job...:clap:do you have pictures of the hardware you used to set it up. We get requests for this type of carriers from time to time...:thumbup:
Yes, not the best pics but gives you an idea. Custom built. The axle of the chair sits in the long U bracket, which then closes over top of the axle and with two hinges to tighten it down. Then a secondary support (arm going to the back) holds the chair in position for extra security. This is secured with a quick pin. Fortunately I have good upper body strength to one arm the chair up onto the bike, then do a body twist while keeping my balance and getting the chair into position.Quote:

Nicely done. Have you considered producing them? There are lots of wheel chair riders out there.
Keep on riding, my friend. Nothing stops us but ourselves.

No, I haven't though of producing them. I only came up with the design. I paid (a lot) for the fabrication.
I'm sure you did. Nice piece of engineering.

Its really nice to see someone get his chair to ride alone with him. I have a 2017 RTL so its a much bigger challenge to figure mine out. Right now I have to back up in my garage and park on the right side to mount. Hit the garage door opener and I am gone. I have 3 bikes though and its a challenge to move my bikes around to be able to drive them. Got all 3 fixed for my disabilities, I have M.S. 2 spyder's a 2017 RTL and a 2012 RS plus a 3 wheeled scooter from china. Your bike looks great by the way!Quote:
