I have the F3 S sitting in my garage just waiting. I pet her daily. Thursday it goes to welder for mods. I am so excited to get out on the road.

I posted a new thread of the finished product but wanted to add it here too. I put the ISCI Hand Brake on as well as the mounts for my wheelchair. What a set up, easy to use all the way around.

Eddy looks good do you have any close up photos of the rack and what position are your floorboards in ? Plus did you run into any difficulty installing the handbrake ? My bike is still at the dealers but if they can get it done on Tuesday Im going RIDING also do your feet stay on the boards without any
assistance ?
Enjoy the Ride

I have only ridden it short distances without problems. My legs do have spasms so I do have to strap them down. I am going to put strap around leg which should hold foot on platform and keep legs secure to bike, no flopping. I am going to run the velcro strap around frame bar and my leg. I was told how to do this by Jim, another rider that is paralyzed. He also put a seat belt on around his waist to keep butt in seat on quick stops/maneuvers. I believe he ran the Velcro belt around passenger handles. He purchased the belts at Home Depot.
The ISCI Hand brake is awesome. Easy to install with footboards or pegs. I had to spend extra time getting it bled and rebled but seems good now. I have yet to test it at high speeds. A second pump and they are as solid as foot brake. One pump is almost as good but that second pump it locks em down. I'll have to get pictures of just the rack tomorrow.
