Alan Kempster Alan started riding when he was a teenager and began racing when he was 20 years old. But he had to give up racing due to a horrible motorcycle crash in 1990. He was hit by a hit and run drunk driver; Alan survived the crash but had to amputate his arm and leg. Even after this, Alan decided to continue doing the one thing he loves so much- Riding a Motorcycle. Filled with emotion and passion to get back on the motorcycle, Alan started modifying a 400 cc Honda motorcycle. He moved all the hand and foot controls to the left side. The clutch, throttle, brake all moved the left hand.
