Wheelchair motorcycle bikers use a wheelchair ramp in the back of a modified BMW trike called The Conquest. In order to ride from their wheelchairs, they shift gears with the use of hand controls. The "Gang of Three" was led by MobilityWorks Certified Mobility Consultant Todd Slates, video of the three riders was taken during the 2010 David Lytle Memorial Foundation Poker Run in Northern Ohio on August 21st. The foundation assists persons with spinal cord injuries in finding assistive technology to help improve their mobility. Footage was taken by MobilityWorks President Bill Koeblitz.

Looks good dude, check out the modification i did to my 2008 R6. I am a T6/T7 paraplegic for 3 years now whe a car hit my on my other bike on the highway. Let me know what you think. I want to make a similar system for my 2002 V-Star 650 that I rode cross country before my accident when I was 21.

I'm not gonna lie. I thought this was stupid until I saw these people smiling while getting into their behemoth machines. That alone makes this awesome.

I like the Conquest. They are a nice drive even though you sit with your head 6 ft in the air, but how about one we average guys can afford? At $57,000 it's nearly 1/3 the value of my home. $57,000.00 for the trike, plus tax & license bring it to about $62,000...A new manual wheelchair with good wheels can cost $5000
The rebate just about covers that...
Of course OCC built their wheel-on trike for over $100K.

Much respect for persevering to ride. Those bikes look like a handful too.
