Handicap plates on a Harley?
#12
I have a handicaped plate.....but I also have to ride 3 wheels now....
I wouldn't be too quick to jugde........hopefully it's not someone taking advantage of the system......I've met several severly disabled people who don't appear to be that way at first glance.......

I was given 20 questions many times for ridin' the hog after major surgery last year (organ removed). Walking wasn't easy (distance), but short trips on the scoot were a breeze..., any experienced rider knows that ridin' a Harley can be effortless.
I'm fine now, so I never had a special plate.

handicapped plates have to be approved by a Doctor. We have them for the car and truck. My oldest son has cerebral palsey. He's not confined to a wheelchair like most kids but can't walk long distances. I've been riding him around town on the roadking a little. He loves it. I won't be getting handicapped plates for the bike.

I don't use a hadicap plate but I am disabled 15 years and was down a long time!!
I use a placard in my truck. The privledge of riding should not be restricted to abnyone that xcan handle it,and it may be whats keeping me from going POSTAL!!!

Rev. Kaiser
a man from Connecticut called "Reverend Kaiser" who rode....they had no hp plates for CT at the time. Everyone was told "you can't be handicapped and ride a motorcycle!" To demonstrate to the legislator who said that how stupid it was, the good Rev K then yanked off his prosthetic leg and slammed it on the desk

I have seen disabled plates on many bikes, mostly Harley's, went on a charity ride this past Christams and the guy not only had disabled plates but also pulled his cane out of a homemade cane holder he rigged up! Hey gotta ride, right?

I would have questioned it myself. But after hearing all you guys it amazes me. I guess you can do a lot of things that people would not think you normally could. I definitely have a different outlook now and I will not assume the plates were not legit.
