Hi All -
My 1st post in years - been off the grid since 2010 so hola. I live in Dallas, Tx.
I have no muscle activity (drop foot - dead muscles below knee) on my Right leg. Walk with a carbon fiber toe-off AFO; in process of moving to a custom KAFO am currently training in. Left leg is normal.
I am desperate to get back into motorcycling after decades away from the sport.
Since (fortunately) the shifter on a motorbike is on the left side, I am ok to change gears. But the areas of concern on the Right side would naturally be:
* rear braking/balanced braking
* balance on turning
* keeping my Right leg/foot on the foot peg at speed/turns
AND most importantly -
* how to stabilize/ hold the bike/balance when stopped
Where do I begin this journey ? Does anyone in the Dallas, D/FW help with this kind of training/modification stuff (if needed) ? I would love to get my Texas Motorcycle endorsement on my Drivers License.
Any help is much appreciated. I love Motorbiking. :cooldude:
Thanks -
Jim
