No probs. It really is useful. Without it I'd have to have bought something a lot smaller to shuffle it in at the back. Maybe a Yamasaki Honda replica!

I definitely preferred it over the other one.

It would be interesting to see a DIY version. If you start producing, let me know and I'll create you a web site (for a small cut of the profits!) :-)

hahahaha was not thinking of making more then 1 lol would not trust my may of making it on anyone else's bike, thanks anyway

The wide angle lens?

Thanks for the comment! Mine's a bit rough on the floor but not too bad. Occasionally it would stick and need an extra push to get it moving but never so much to make me worry the bike would fall over. It really is a good bit of kit (although I've since sold it because the garage is now only for the bike and the car stays outside).

I do it for the cheaper insurance premium.

+goose gog I didn't keep it long. I had a gearbox problem that Toyota couldn't fix. After about six months of taking it in to the garage and getting no joy I traded in. They had it for a week once, admitted it was faulty but gave it back in exactly the same broken condition :-(

Yes, it's 5m x 2.5m, so 5m long.

Because of the shape it's hard to say but it might be big enough. You are welcome to come over the river and try it out for size.

I may just have to take you up on your offer sometime bud, Maybe when I've got a little more money though, there's nothing worse than seeing that bit of equipment that would just do nice, and not being able to afford it, thanks Bro, Ride Safe.

Skeggy Cruiser No problem. I'll have to get the tape measure out for you too.

I don't have the dolly any more but as I recall, there were four or five possible positions, rather that being adjustable to any position.

@@CalmBiker hi there, thanks for the vid.. do you remember if you could still turn the bars and put steering lock on? and may I ask why you got rid of the dolly in the end?

@@Shinjiitso I can't remember if I could turn the steering enough to put the steering lock on, sorry. I would imagine it wouldn't be much help on the dolly though, as any theives would probably just drag the whole dolly away with the bike on. I now use a ground anchor and a heavy chain for security, as well as the bike being in a locked and alarmed garage. I only got rid of the dolly because I changed my car to one that I didn't feel the need to keep in the garage, so I didn't need to move the bike around so much. If I had kept the car, I would still have the dolly now I think.

Shinjitso Smith I have a CBR650R (if that helps) and you can lock the steering. It does take a bit of a wiggle but it works. I will say that your floor needs to be smooth for this to free-wheel around the garage though. I have had a major issue where I actually dropped my bike whilst riding it onto the dolly. This probably occurred because I am quite short. But what tends to happen is, if you do not have the bike perfectly lined up to ride onto the dolly, or the dolly is slightly askew from the bike, the rear wheel catches the sidewalls of the dolly and makes the bike become quite unstable. I have a 180mm rear tyre and the dolly internal width is only 200mm so you don't get much room for error. Even when I get it right I can hear the rear tyre rubbing on the sidewall. Luckily no damage was done, but they need to make it a bit wider. Hope this helps

@@RedlineRossi Same here. I initially bought the sidestand trolley as shown in this video but hated it. Apart from the fact that you can't lock the steering, I don't really like leaving my bike on the sidestand for long periods of time with the weight fully on both tyres. The thing that put me off most though was that with me being a short arse and my bike weighing nearly 300kg I found that when I rode the bike on the sidestand dolly I found that it raised the height of the bike a couple of inches making me stand on tiptoes and fearful of dropping the bike it. And as Rossi said unless you get the wheels dead straight the rear tyre will scrape the side of the dolly making everything unstable when on tiptoes. I actually stopped using this dolly and bought one of the centre stand dolly's that calmbiker did a video of previously. That dolly does make putting the bike on the centre stand harder but raising the rear wheel about an inch with a plank of wood or as per the video using a concrete paver helps a lot to get it on its centrestand.

I never had an issue with the center stand from that point of view but I much preferred the side stand dolly. I wonder if it would become an issue as the wheels aged and became stiff.

Blimey!

@@CalmBiker yes I said something similar 🤔

By the way Machine Mart are doing VAT for a few days... Bringing the price down to a more palatable £115

@@danjf *VAT FREE

I wouldn't risk it I don't think. I don't have it any more but I always rolled the bike off.

Definitely. I haven't got it any more because I completely changed the garage layout and moved the car out but it was a solid piece of kit.

@@CalmBiker cool. I'm going to buy one for my 8.5x20 cargo trailer. So I can turn it sideways after it's loaded. Thank you!!

@@Lapeerphoto Hope it works as well for you as mine did for me!

It's quite small being a newish build but the Drift camera did make it look even smaller with the wide angle lens.

I couldn't say for sure because I don't have it any more but I don't see why it wouldn't.

Yes, this one used the side stand. Ebay is probably the best bet. I just did a search for 'motorcycle side stand dolly' and there are quite a few.

Haha! Yes, I've done a little to it since then.

It's from Clarke.

+Ian Collings Don't though :-D
