Garage storage?? How to make it fit

[TorontoBusa]

I didn't like that set up for 2 reasons:
1. The bike is leaning at an angle on the sidestand and therefore it takes up more room. It will also be a little awkward to do maintenance on that stand because of the lean.
2. It also looks like it was a little wobbly when you drove up on it.

I made my own out of 3/4 inch plywood (2 layers) and some casters and put a Baxley sport chock on the front and used my rear stand on the back.
The ramp on the back folds up to save a little more room.
It is big enough to put the bike on the sidestand if I want
It is 3 feet by 8 feet log and solves the 2 problems above for me.
I like to do oil changes, clean wheels lube chain on it so I painted it white so I could see dropped parts.
The corner is orange so my wife won't trip on it comming down the stairs into the garage.

Park it in the living room. Problem solved!

My mint condition 1982 Katana 1100 is already in the living room! Best piece of art I've ever seen

Princess Auto has that same dolly for us guys in Canada.

I just picked up the Motorcycle dolly @ princess auto, fantastic deal, $90 and on sale 50% off!! I could not but the castors for that kind on money.

And looks really well built and is powder coated as well

Thanks for the Princess Auto tip, would have never thought about it.

And I had to call stores individually to find one, as it is no longer on the site.

I have the part number if anyone needs it.

Thanks for all the input, I can now fit all the toys in the garage!!

Once its all packed in, I'll take a pic to show how cramped it really is.

Requires a center stand, but I sell this one.

I keep our bikes angled & on stands so there is still room to walk. A friend of mine has the Harbor Freight stand & really like it.
