how i put my bike on stands by myself

[lankeeyankee]

I dont see the difficulty with putting the Busa on the rear stand. I thought about this tonight as I came home for a ride and set up my cam to make a recording...

You guys are working waaay too hard...i'm gonna have to make a video...

Be sure the video includes a 135 lb person doing the lifting. That I would like to see.

I'm 5.6 and never had a problem. Maybe some of you should hit the weights? I dunno.

But now since I have a 10in stretch and no place for spools (and the swingarm adapters are always sketchy with this arm) I just use a floor jack under the swingarm or motor to raise up the rear. Front of bike in a chock or front stand. Throw the bike on a floor jack if it's gonna be there a while. No more rear stand issues!

Try this....

crack open a beer,
remove hump,
install grab bar,
left hand on grab bar,
Right hand on rear stand
jack her up,
crack open another beer,
jack up front,
crack open another beer,

start working on bike.

Yep...and I'm not a big strong guy and that's pretty much what I do. Too funny!
