Yes, I only have one leg. Due to bonecancer many years ago. Used to do bike riding/stunting with two wheelers until a few years ago when a bike accident nearly killed me.

Doing Quad riding and competition instead. A lot safer...


A few pics of my bike riding days:





Anyway... Enjoy!

Re: VID: Quad Drifting on tarmac! =)

he lost his left arm so he has the front brake and clutch on the right side of his bike, looks like a handbrake setup... he rides harleys though, no stunting

Re: VID: Quad Drifting on tarmac! =)

wow, i dont post much at all but you seriously have got the biggest determination and spirit i have ever seen for a disabled person.

I work at a Honda dealership and we have a couple of riders with disabilites, one with a VTX1800 with a air shifter i rigged up for him becuase he also lost a leg.

DONT ever stop riding man!!!!

Re: VID: Quad Drifting on tarmac! =)

wow man thats awesome definatly an inspiration. u ride better with one leg then some do with 2. very cool. u ever do acually trials on the bike?

i get some magazine from hona every month and this month they had a kid with only one arm that has a prostetic one that holds onto the handle bar so he can ride his dirt bike and mountain bike.

he races his dirt bike and wins and stuff its pretty cool!

P.S whats an air shifter?

Re: VID: Quad Drifting on tarmac! =)

Thanks guys!

randomjibrish - Yep, I prefer it that way. Altough the GasGas comes with it stock, as well as Ohlins dampers all around and 2-pot Brembo brakes and braided lines and fuelinjection and... Very nice quad for a stocker..

Trike250cc - No competitions, if that's what U mean. I did ride with it in the woods, until someone stole it during a break in...

If there's a will, there's a way. This one is totally stock, no mods made to it so I can't control the rear brake. But I will buy a thumbrake for it, feels better when you wheelie.

Airshifter is a mechanic solution to switch gears without touching the gear lever, using compressed air from a canister. Useful if you need to change gears while doing highchairs.


Soon winter and snow over here, expect some serious drifting vids then. :YEAH



Sorry for the late update...
