Abstract: An adjustable accessory support assembly for a motorcycle accessory includes a base connectable to a support bracket mounted on a motorcycle and a slider accessory connectable to the motorcycle accessory and coupled to the base. The slider assembly is configured to transition from a first, locked configuration to a second, unlocked configuration. In the locked configuration, relative movement between the slider assembly and the base is prevented, whereas in the unlocked configuration, the slider assembly is moveable relative to the base to allow the motorcycle accessory to be repositioned relative to the support bracket.
Abstract: A pivotable passenger peg assembly that is mountable to a motorcycle includes an elongate arm with a cylindrical opening. The elongate arm is pivotally mounted on a first cylindrical member that is mountable to a motorcycle. The first cylindrical member is configured with a stepped outer cylindrical surface that cooperates with a detent formed within the cylindrical opening of the arm to limit the pivotal range of the arm. The first cylindrical member may be incorporated into a motorcycle mount or may be adapted to attach to a motorcycle mount.
Abstract: A motorcycle backrest assembly includes a base assembly having first and second ends and a back rest rotatably connected to the first end of the base assembly such that the back rest is movable between first and second positions. A mounting plate has the second end of the base assembly rotatably connected thereto such that the base assembly is movable between first and second positions. The backrest assembly includes a first configuration as a passenger back rest where the backrest is in the first position and the base assembly is in the first position, and a second configuration as a driver backrest where the backrest is in the second position and the base assembly is in the second position.
Abstract: A motorcycle passenger backrest has a generally U-shaped or V-shaped backrest frame that is configured for connection to a mounting bracket on the motorcycle. The inner surface of the backrest frame is configured with a recessed space having a base surface and a side surface that extends from the base surface at an angle. A carrier frame configured to fit within the recessed space is pivotally mounted to each leg of the backrest frame. The carrier frame is movable between an up, stored position, with the carrier frame in contact with the base surface of the recessed space, and a down, carrier position, with the carrier frame pivoted away from the backrest frame.
Abstract: A quick-release latch assembly includes a plate, a latch pivotally coupled to the plate, and a locking assembly movable relative to the latch between a first, unlocked position and a second, locked position. When the locking assembly is in the unlocked position, the latch is allowed to rotate with respect to the plate. In contrast, when the locking assembly is in the locked position, the latch is prevented from rotating with respect to the plate.
Abstract: A passenger armrest assembly includes an armrest coupled to a support tube that is pivotally mounted to an armrest support bracket. The armrest support bracket is configured to be reversibly mounted to a mounting bracket that is installed on a motorcycle structure adjacent to a passenger seat. The armrest support bracket is easily removable when a motorcycle is not carrying a passenger, and is easily attachable to the mounting bracket when a passenger is to be carried on the motorcycle.

Abstract: A portable truck dump comprises a conveyor system mounted on an elongate frame to transport material from a first end of the frame to a second, opposite end of the frame. A grate is positioned over the conveyor system and is supported by first and second sides of the frame. A ramp extends generally perpendicular to the frame on each side of the frame next to the grate to provide a drive-over access for a material transport vehicle to deposit its load over the grate and onto the conveyor system and a portion of each ramp. A first end of each ramp immediately adjacent to the frame is pivotally connected to the frame to allow the ramp to be articulated towards the grate to move excess material off of the ramp and into the grate.
