Harley training wheels

I finally saw something I'd never thought I'd see. A Harley-Davidson with training wheels. It is not a trailer or a sidecar.
Sorry, but I haven't figured out how to rotate it.

I believe those wheels are used for people with disabilities. Some even retract at higher speeds. At low speeds it takes all the weight off the drivers legs when coming to a stoplight for example.
 
I have a couple time seen motorcycles with those wheels folded up going down the road. Never looked into it but assumed it was for someone who couldn't "muscle" their bike but still wanted to ride.
 
I had to get rid of my last motorcycle - a Honda CB1 - when it fell over in my driveway and I had to call my daughter to help me lift it up. It was fast though.
 
When our Granddaughter saw one of those CAN AM three wheelers
coming down the road,she said "Look,they've got training wheels".
