Fw: [QUAD-L] Hand controls

[William Willis]

Actually, I have been driving for many years (since 1979). I bought a van off ebay that is already equipped with reduced effort everything. It just has the wrong grip. The fellow I bought it from was a c-5 and had a different apparatus attached, but I don't know what it was. Thanks.

I'm thinking and guessing, not knowing your personal strengths or weaknesses, that the push/pull controls are better and a quad "fork" spin control. I hope that you reconsider the driving issue before you hit the streets of North America.... (or else call me before you hit the roads.... so that I can find a hiding place, lol) Best Wishes W In a message dated 7/30/04 8:21:17 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << I have a question for my fellow quads who drive. I have a monarch control which is made like a motorcycle grip. Obviously, I can't grip it. What kind of wrist support do you guys use that allows you to push down the accelerator? I have a wall hook from Walmart fastened to mine. Not very pretty, but it works, sorta. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Larry Willis >>
