Thought I would share this with everyone. I have one for my tourer and works great... ride it in the garage and onto the dolly. Then move it out of the way or maneuver bike closer to the wall or next to your other valk with ease!!! And then when you are ready to head out of the garage just "spin" the bike around and you are on your way... Works slick... regularly 99.00

Never seen one of those in the Hill Country where I live.
Looks handy as the pocket on a Shirt.

Stude31 I agree it works well  , but having your guests spin you around and around after you park your bike on it is a little overboard  , just saying  !  JDW

Engemt... Bite me  Big AL. I originally bought this cause I kept one of my Valk's in my dad's garage and dad tried to move my bike one day and about dropped it so I bought this to eliminate that possibility in the future. I now keep both valk's in the garage and when the weather is bad I can slide both bike's to one side of the garage and move my wife's car out of harms way. Works like a charm!! I'm debating on having two just so I can move both up against the wall out of the way.

I have looked at them, just wondered how easy it is to get to get the bike off and on. Simple? Safe?

Chip it is really safe... the silver ramps that fold down on the front and back lifts all the wheels of the dolly off the ground. The Valk just fits on the ramp. Wheel base is close but it does fit. I have a car tire on the back of the i/s and it fits along with the tourer.

We have one, the project HD is on it. We've threatened to get another one or two, but Wizard wasn't convinced they'd be good for Valks. I'll let him know ....

Stude,
I thought about buying one of those last week... I measured my wheelbase 4 times!! It looked like it would be within half an inch so I was a little shy...if you say a Valk fits, it's good enough for me.
It looks like a great winter storage item if nothing else... I can get my son's Shadow up tight next to my Valk for winter... sort of tuck 'em in against each other.
I think I'll buy one... where did you find that coupon? my May Rider Magazine had it in there but it expired 6/5/2010...

Only question is, how do you roll that on gravel??  Might further mention, the Harbor Freight Motorcycle Lift is on sale, until June 24th, for $79.99...with the 20% coupon, that's readily available, that takes it down to $63...another good deal! I'm picking mine up tomorrow... http://www.harborfreight.com/automotive-motorcycle/lifts-stands/1500-lb-capacity-atv-motorcycle-lift-2792.htmlRC
