Since Spring is upon us, many motorcycle riders are getting out their bikes and going for rides. A segment of the population that might also be getting out their motorcycles… the wheelchair bound!
Conquest Motorcycles is company changing the way we think about motorcycles. Originally bikes really could only be ridden by those with full functioning legs. Conquest builds motorcycles that are only ridden by those who have no use of their legs.
It's a very interesting motorcycle design and a great idea. It starts out as a BMW R1200, then is modified into a trike. The bike has 1170cc pumping out 109bhp, Kliktronic thumb operated transmission with 6-speeds, a top speed of 105mph, goes from 0-60 in 7.6 seconds, and weighs 1090 lbs.
For those looking for the open thrill of the road, riding a motorcycle is great way to experience it. It's great people in wheelchairs can enjoy it now.
