My Training Wheels

Here is what I took private lessons on. Tom's Driving School ROCKS! I think it may be the only on in the world. it has dual controls on brakes, gear shift clutch and throttle.

So....you had to ride with someone else on the back? One of the things people say you should wait until you're pretty experienced/comfortable to try? o.O

It appears so, you can see the cable/pulley system running from the bars on the back all the way to the forks to a plate just under the fork bag.

Well, the way that bike is set up it isn't really a rider/passenger as much as a tandem rider/rider being that the person in the back also has control of everything the front rider would. Not to mention it is a flat seat so the passenger would be able to have their feet down at a stop, taking pressure off the front rider.

I am also making the assumption that the rear rider has control of the shift linkage even through you cannot see from this side. But I do have to wonder how one would set up 2 master cylinders to apply force to the same slave. My first thought was one caliper/rotor per set of controls but I only see one rotor in the pic.

Dual control steering, pulley system to which he controlled everything! This guy stripped and recreated this bike himself. I think he patent it so if you wanna purchased it LMK i can get you his # :-)
I really enjoyed the course.
oh and yes it was VERY HARD for me to drive was another individual on back but he leaned when i leaned etc. so it made it easier. so A+ for KIDS :-)
