I am looking to purchase a motorcycle dolly for my interstate.(not a jack, just a dolly)  does anyone have a good suggestion?  Most of the ones I see are like a jack and want to pick the bike up by the frame, not interested in crushing my pipes or dropping the bike!  so, any of the ones you roll your bike on are the ones I am interested in.  thanks for any suggestions!

Here's some earlier discussion on this, with some suggestions and real world use cases:

Have considered getting a couple of these dollies but, didn't really need them in my last shop.   But I admit that I sure could use a couple of them now.   While I do have a three car garage, we down sized when we moved to our new home in TN so, there's "Stuff" in my garage that would normally have been in the house.  Hoping the Spousal Unit will eventually decide to let some of this stuff go.

Planning on building a new shop when our MS house (4 car garage) sells.   But until that house sells, I'm stuck with some pretty tight space for the herd.

thank you both.  Like Rams, I just downsized to a 3 car garage, so not much room for my girlfriends mustang, equinox, my jeep and the bike.  I am leaning towards the black widow dolly, as it seems big enough to handle a valkyrie, and is aluminum. the older I get, the easier I want things to be!!
