ADAM CRAWSHAW
HAS GAS GAS
After an accident in 2010, Adams’ left leg was amputated below the knee. He decided that he needed to get back on two wheels and was pointed in the direction of the National Association for Bikers with a Disability.
Adam wishes to thank the National Association for Bikers with a Disability, and all who have donated money to help.
He applied through the grants system for a Kliktronic gear changer for his Gas Gas EC250, which was approved and sent out to him.
I think you’ll agree, Adam has done an excellent job of it.
He decided to fit the Kliktronic himself and by machining the Kliktronics’ actuator to the same shape as the bikes’ front sprocket guard, he was able to get the 90° angle required to attach it to the gear change lever. He then wired it up to the bikes loom and adjusted it as necessary. He says it’s running like a dream and has enabled him to enjoy his bike once more.
He’s an ‘extremely’ happy chappie now.
This grant of £350.00 was sponsored by Downton Lodge, Fordingbridge, Hants, and Richard Pomeroy of Rugby, in memory of his late father Christopher Pomeroy. For more information on the Kliktronic gear changer, visit: https://www.kliktronic.co.uk or call 01359 242100 Open House Issue 100 15
