I'm looking for tips on prosthetic design for a recent, young, traumatic short (3) right TR amputee. One thing he really wants to be able to do again is ride his motorcycle. Questions I have are: Who modifies motorcycles w/ hand ctrls and such? Will a locking terminal device be dangerous since the rider would have trouble bailing out of danger? Those of you w/ similar experience, what have you found to work or work best as far as hooks/ hands, VO/VC, and myos/ conventional?
Granted, riding a bike won't be the only consideration taken for prosthetic design selection in this situation, but this may help me to choose the best components. Thanks in advance. Zach Harvey, CO, BEP
