There is a version of this wheel roller being sold through advert in Performance Bikes, they want 50 quid for it, bit exy. I just ride the bike onto the one I made myself, no need to lift anything. Pushing off is easier than pushing off a center stand.

 

It's really a simple ramp, with rollers. i will see what I can do about a pic. If anyone wants one I arrange to have some made.

I got it in for like 75 sing plus shipment.

 

Good thing is, just roll your bike over it.

 

Bad thing is, if your bike is heavy, it takes some effort to turn the wheel..

 

I havent used it for like 2 mths and felt like throwing it.. :lol:

Yeah Thats pretty close to the thing I made up myself.

 

It cost me about $35 all up. I used larger wheels, and I regularly run larger older bikes on it. Like A '94 GSXR1100, that lump weighs 230kg, and wheel rotates with one hand. Same with Leadwings, or Hogleys which are no lightweights either.

my previous bike had a main stand.it was godsend.my current bike can be fixed with one but i dowan.Know wat i do to lube my chain on my own?

ok before park ur bike in the parking spot,stop about 2 meters in front of it .get ur lube or wax out and spray along the inner part of the chain from front sprocket to rear sprocket.Then spray the outer part of the chain that runs around the rear sprocket. Get it? Ok then push ur bike into ur parking spot observing the rotation of ur chain.U gotto estimate its rotation go about 1 cycle so that the unsprayed part is exposed.Then repeat the lubing procedure.Hope this help :smile:

underseat exhaust hor, same theory concept !

 

squat behind the bike/tyre/chain

 

if yours is underseat, you have to use your head to " lift the exhaust " !

For phantom user,

 

Use a car jack will be good enough. Put your bike is side stand and lock your bike.

 

Then use a thick cloth and put on top of the jack plateform. Place the jack under your exhaust and slowly jack the bike up, each time trying to move the wheel, once the wheel can move freely, stop the jack and start applying the spray.

 

Another way is to put the jack under your bike, there is a strong foundation at the bottom of phantom bike, have to feel with hand to know, and then proceed to use the same method as the mentioned.

 

Key thing to note is don't do it when the exhaust is hot, dangerous.
