yah...too heavy for 1 guy.....understand that to lift bike up somebody mention use your body as a dead weight and leverage to upright it..

normally we would upright the vehicle from the left.( ie stand next to the tank)..but for bigger bikes maybe upright it on the right side of bike.(stand on the other side facing the bottom of bike)..step on foot peg..pull handle bar.and lean backwards..some say this may do the job..well no opportunity to try...as dont have heavy bike on its side for uprighting..hahaha

 

so lembeh rider like me..will have to learn this method...or red face ask for help...tolong lah tolng lah .....

 

Kiamh and other big bike rider ...you have any special technigue to upright heavy bike alone??? care to share..thanks

[BlackDawn]

My bike is not that heavy. Just 240kg.

The technique taught at the driving schools for class 2 will suffice.

[jB]

Think I posted some vids link on how they lift the bike from left and right side before. But it was loooooong ago

Its something that is easier to be demonstrated then described. It just too tedious to describe on a computer keyboard. Visit a driving school & see how they do it it you are really interested.

dude.

Not exactly, but it will work as well. There are many ways to pick up a dropped bike. I never found a need to look for an alternative to what the driving schools taught me & like I said, my bike is not that heavy.
