"I don't know what I'd do without my Sportster!"

"I'm currently unable to obtain a drivers license, but with my Sportster I'm still able to get around town. It gets me to the market, enables me to visit my friends, the cemetery and the farmers market, about 10 to 15 miles away. It's very handy!"

- Fred Arai

"I love my Sportster!"

"I've given your phone number to several people who know quality when they see it. I've been a mechanic all my life."

- Lawrence Prouty

"I love it!"

"My condition would prevent me from attending school. But with the Sportster I can get to my classes on my own. And it's so much fun. It's a life saver; I just love it!"

- Jordy Harpel

"Riding my Sportster sure beats walking!"

"The night after my purchase, I got a rare, excellent night's sleep and the throbbing in my legs had really gone down. I'm a new man! Ever since September 12, 1998, the road to our home has been closed due to a landslide. We've had a rough trail to our home carved out of the backside of the hill. My recent fall, putting me on crutches, has not helped, but the Sportster sure does! Riding my Sportster up those 1,875 virtually vertical feet from the parking area to our front porch sure beats walking. It's helped to restore my faith that we're going to overcome!"

- G.L.H., Santa Barbara, CA

"The Sportster had everything I imagined in a medical vehicle"

"In 73 years I have never dealt with a company so trustworthy, honest, fair and friendly to do business with.... and the wonderful Sportster has made me as mobile as if I had a car but without the insurance, registration, driver's license, repairs, gas and oil."

- William J. Brusky, San Pedro, CA

"I drive it all over town!"

"I've owned a Palmer and Rascal and they just don't compare to the Sportster: it's safer, more maneuverable, more comfortable and it goes farther! The Sportster enables me to visit my wife, an Alezhiemer patient, at the nursing home. I just love it!"

- James McCann, Hawthorne, CA

"Love the high speed Sportster to get me there faster..."

"I don't feel "pinned in". I like the high speed to get to places faster, couldn't get to restaurant with out. My legs don't hurt as much now that they get some rest on the Sportster!"

- Lionel Machado, Dana Point, CA

"I gained freedom without a car!"

"My injury to my leg forced me into retirement. There's no substitute for my scooter. I can't be on my feet for more than 5 minutes an hour. It gives me tremendous freedom to drive around town. My major hobby is horse racing. It takes only 30 minutes to ride my Sportster to Santa Anita Race Track. I can take it right up into the track counter and inside to the stands. It's a well-made unit!"

- Jim Widaman, Arcadia, CA

"It turned my disability into ability!"

"The Sportster 2001 is nearly invincible and makes similar products pale in comparison. Over curbs, up hills and over uneven terrain, the Sportster is master! It has given me the ability, freedom and power to see and experience sights I haven't seen in years. I highly recommend the Sportster. Turn your disability into ability today."

- John McLandress, Seattle, WA
