First off my name is jesse. I am a t11 para. I just got my new 2011 rss on friday. I had to tie my feet to the pegs to get it home:yikes:, but every thing went good and i road it 35 mi home. I built a set of running boards on sat and they work great. I have been trying to get a hold of RACKITON. Can any one tell me if he is still in buisness?

You may also want to send SethO a PM, as he may be able to give you some advice on a chair rack as well. :thumbup:

I don't and have not see anyone who does yet in person, I got the one I use, it covers the back seat but it takes it and I ride everyday.

How did you drive home with a t11 sci with your feet tied to the pegs and operate the footbrake?

Setho. I had the ISCI hand brake installed at the shop, before I picked it up. I have been racing motorcycles most of my life. So just getting back on some thing similare was fun. I put my floorboards on and did 125mi on sunday. I got to do something about this seat.

I and others put a airhawk cushion in, i cut the foam out and put it underneath and others put it on top but you have to get rid of the foam in the area, also cut the plastic by the gas cap so you do not have to get off to put gas in, I pull up then back at the pump at a 45 so you reach the pay at the pump with a card, undo the velco that keeps my knees from flopping around and fold back the seat part I cut and put the cap in a little satchel ( hangover reference) and put gas in and repeat in reverse. The best gas stop I did was about 2 min 30 sec on my 1000 miles in 17 hours 42 minutes adventure which had two 1 hours breaks.

How long has it been since you where on a bike? where did you race at what level?

I got hurt racing on 10/2/05 I was desert racing in nevada. I have raced every where on the west coast including the baha 1000 and the 500. I was a mediocre pro motocrosser, a pretty good pro desert racer and good enough to make a living racing professional speedway for a couple of years in the early ninties. My life reminds me of that movie title "Almost Famous":D I am now 46 yrs old. Its been a good run so far and its not over yet.
