Hmmmm.... I considered that once, but opted for the HF MC Lift/jack.... it has wheels on it so you can move your bike around and lift it up.  I don't quite get the purpose of that dolly you ride or push the bike into, just so you can move the bike around in a tight garage.  If the garage is so small you are considering that, then where will it be stored?  I do have a Dolly you lift the bike on so you can push it around, but they don't sell that one anymore.

I currently make a 20 point turn in the garage and figured it may be easier to just rotate

With your jack and this adapter you can rotate and move your bike around as you want.Great for storing your Valk for the winter and making more room in your garage.  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170384749071&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

yup got all that.  the dolly seems to allow you to quickly roll on, rotate and roll off, without fixtuing the adapter, lifting her up, then relowering and taking hte fixture off.  I dont 'know maybe its just me.

I think what you are referring to is a pair of dollies, curved for the tire to set in w/4 wheels on it.  Wheels that rotate 360, for moving the device anywhere.

Once the bike is in these dollies, you can push it any direction you so desire.

I have seen what I'm referring to used to stack bikes into tight spots for storage, like up against the back wall of a single car garage.

No, he's asking about this. I've never used one, sorry I can't give any help. That is a C50 Boulevard in the pic and the tire looks pretty snug though.  Dave
