If I had balance issues and could no longer ride a two-wheeler, I'd consider something like this. That said, I'd rather have a sidecar rig.

That is why the Deuce will eventually become one or get a Frankentrikes conversion. Prices are very similar. But the advantage of going sidecar is the fact i will not have to change exhausts and maybe only need to change to a swing arm mounted saddle bag or simply remove the right side bag. Plus...major advantage goes to the sidecar once a kid comes into the picture for me.

a leaner side car...... set them up so the car steers into the corner
as the bike leans..
just put the front mounting arm pivot higher than the rear , the
higher you put it the more the car steers...
