I was surfing over at Killboy's Blog site and ran across this Buell... interesting.

The interesting part, to me, is not the bike.

Yeah, this was over in the Quick Board too...

I want to see more and read a story on it. I see a wheel chair so maybe it's for a disabled person?

looks like sidecar with wheelchair storage to me. Maybe someone should check out the website painted on the side of the bike.

I checked out their website and only the home page works. Looks like they do trike and sidecar mods.
I have a family member who is a double amputee from an RPG round in Iraq. I think that is great if it allows someone wheelchair bound to ride again. With so many of our soldier being wounded this is a great service they are providing.

I just checked out their website and noticed that they aren't too far from me, maybe an hours ride. Once the bike is back together I may have to pay 'em a visit to see what they're all about. There are a couple of members here that are really close, maybe a 20 or 30 minute ride.

I didn't see handlebars on the bike itself so I'm thinking its a wheelchair accessible Buell. My congratulations to the owner even if he won't be dragging his kneecaps with the rest of us

I've seen a bike accessible for the wheelchair this year in Daytona.
the built was very smart and really gave the opportunity to an handicapped to drive the bike.
this one it's just a sort of a sidecar, probably accessible to a wheelchair, but not rideable from him...

Is that "Racewinder" still available that's on there? That looks cooler than the Forcewinder.

There's something about the orange and black paint schemes that I like. Interesting bike.

More from their site:

""Can't is NOT a option!"

We are a privately owned company established in 1995. Owned and operated by Greg Queen, a Certified Harley-Davidson Techinician. We specialize in: custom motorcycles, trikes, sidecars, high peformance engine modifications, repairs, and services. We can create or modify bikes for anyone with a desire to ride, including those who have a physical disability.

I was around bikes my entire life and from a very early age learned to ride. After years of riding and racing I had a paralizing injury. Being unable to ride gave me the desire to customize my own motorcycles so I could continue to ride. This is when I decided I wanted to do the same for others and began to customize bikes for those with and without physical disabilites.

We take pride in our work whether you need a simple repair or a completely customized bike, remember: "CAN'T IS NOT AN OPTION!!!""

I think its great that someone in wheelchair isn't forced away from being able to ride any more. I'm sure these machines are not cheap though.
