How do I get my bike's rear up on my Pit Bull?

[05BUSABLU]

I would like to get my 2005 LE Busa up on a Pit Bull rear stand.  I am afraid to try it without seeing some pics of this.

Does anyone have any pics of a Busa up on a Pit Bull rear stand.  Also, I could use some suggestions as to how to get it up there by myself.  My girlfriends to weak and puny to trust holding the bike and my friends are mostly old, weak, and litiginous.

BTW, does anyone besides me have trouble checking the oil level ?

Here's some thoughts on oil changes:




Appreciate advice.  Thanks.

I use this little gem to keep my bike in an upright position. It's very easy to use and holds the bike securely in an upright position. The upper chock has 2 positions allowing the bike to go a little farther forward into the chock. As you roll into the chock, it follows up behind the tire and squeezes a little. You can also use a small strap to secure it to the chock if you so desire. I am still waitng for my rear stand, but but I see no reason why it wont be a hands off the bike operation to lift as it is already upright and secure. I have a similar device on my Kendon trailer and once the bike is in the chock I can let go of the bike while using the ratchet straps.  BTW...the chock pictured is specifically made for the Busas front tire size. It's also perfect for checking oil.

the rear stand while lifting her will either pull the bike back or forward a bit depending on the handle going forward or back. so watch to see if the front stay in the chock, i use front and rear stands. the rear going on first.

Hey whytlotus, that is a nice chock. Where did you pick that up? That will be great on the trailer & in the garage!

It's called a Baxley Sport Chock. I got it at ....

http://www.indysuperbike.com   It's listed under rear stands. There is a manual lock that secures the chock in the forward postion once in place.

Do a search on the web.  I saw it elsewhere for $20 cheaper after I bought it....just don't remember where.  They also have hardware for mounting to trailers.
