Road Chariot City Wheelchair Motorcycle for Disabled

https://inclusiveinc.org/products/ech...
The three affordable model sizes of the Road Chariot Wheelchair Motorcycle were planned: City (45 mph) Highway (55 mph), and Freeway (75 mph) at prices similar to standard motorcycles for non-disabled bikers!

The Road Chariot Project was shut down due to bureaucratic impediments to innovation with the exception of 1 unit delivered to a very lucky veteran in Iowa which was freed after 10 months from a customs Warehouse thanks to the team of now retired Senator Harkin from Iowa who also was instrumental in the creation of the ADA in the US.

The Road Chariot started with a Suzuki Burgman executive motorcycle. The exact same bike was produced by Suzuki for both the US and Brazilian markets, but received a different VIN code stamped into the frame. the modifications to turn it into a road chariot were being performed by a Brazilian partner Freeway Motorcycles. Unfortunately, the whole project was blocked by the US Dot and EPA based on archaic protectionist policies created up to satiate the lobbyists for domestic auto manufacturers such as Ford and GM. Which only have serve to stifle innovation and claiming domain on anything that uses gas and runs on a road larger than a 50cc weed wacker engine. all the paperwork assumed we were importing an entire shipload of cars. While there was exceptions written into the 80-page manuals which we read word for word for handicapped modified Vehicles. Both the dot and EPA said they had never allowed those exceptions and weren't about to start!

While the one unit was released and it's more than $15,000 in custom's warehouse fees disappeared, and we were basically told "I don't try it again you little shits!" we could make it out of a red wagon if we wanted as long as we did it here in the US, or in this case if we had used Suzuki Bergman's purchased in the US then exported to Brazil modified and then re-imported into the US in the volume of an entire ship load while providing 3 to be crash tested (A rule for a car not really appropriate to a motorcycle).

It was recommended to have your Road Chariot outfitted by your local mobility dealer with a Q'Straint 150 or EZ-Lock Wheelchair Docking system.

--------

The Road Chariot was manufactured in Brazil for Broadened Horizons to Mark Felling's design specifications from highly reliable Suzuki motorcycle components popular worldwide making parts and knowledgeable service available at any motorcycle dealer worldwide! The larger Freeway model was to be manufactured specifically for the US market.

Operation of the Road Chariot currently required full hand dexterity (such as Paraplegics) but will accommodate both manual or power wheelchairs. Mark planned to design simple hand controls for C5, C6, C7 quadriplegics with reasonable arm movement but limited hand dexterity.
