I don't know if you already did this, or if someone else already mentioned it, but I just thought about putting a piece of plywood under each wheel when you back it up. The plywood could be the same thickness as the height of the turn table to raise the bike up the height of the turn table. Then it would be easier to raise the bike on the center stand, if you even need to to do it. Great idea for the turn table. Thanks for sharing!

Good idea. Would be a perfect idea if it was a permanent fixture, so has it was a full platform. Chhers buddy 👍👍

I have one and it was great to turn my fairly big 1290 SA around in a small single garage in Germany...I bought it from the UK actually, great bit of kit. It’s aluminium top & bottom with about 2-3mm HDPE between them. Frictionless. Checker plate on the top. Total height around 7mm. Used it for 3 years no problems.

I got the idea from an old guy in the UK. Very Handy tool 👍👍

Good job! I would love to be able to use one of these myself for my ATAS, but I haven’t got enough space inside, nor outside my shed, to spin the big beast around. Great idea though.👍

Thank for the tip about M6 bolts so 6.5mm hole. If you had not pointed this out I would have done my usual "3 holes OK but 1 needing messed around with".

@ccooper8785 5 жыл бұрын

forgot to mention that my centre stand chewed up the rubber mat. I will probably scrape it off at some point. The advantage of making the turntable the size of yours is that it makes the rubber mat less important.

Exactly that. The bike only has a 16 litre tank and that jerry holds 3 just incase. Used it twice. Tool tube made from sewer pipe one end glued cap the other a screw cap. Brackets made to fit bike.

Great vid. I'm making one this week and will try using rivets instead of bolts. Fingers crossed i see no reason why it shouldn't work.

@WulfOnTheRun 10 ай бұрын

Thanks buddy. Ironically I have just come out the garage after using it to turn the bike around ready to head off the weekend 5 yrs on and still does the job Rivets hopefully will be strong enough. I would go stainless steel rather than aluminium. Good luck buddy 👍👍

@timcross501 10 ай бұрын

@@WulfOnTheRun Hope you enjoyed your weekend ride, terrible weather over here atm, so sadly no biking for me. My chequer plate arrived this morning and i can confirm that the pop rivets (through the smaller holes)of the lady susan) worked perfectly. Glad to know that yours is still working after so many years of use. Tim

Hello. Excellent video and will be fabricating this for my GS. Can you help with the following clarifications: 1. The plate - would a stainless steel (5mm thick) plate work? 2. Can welding work instead of using bolts? Or would you recommend bolts / rivets Thanks a ton.

@WulfOnTheRun 8 ай бұрын

Hi Tom. Yes stainless would work great. Has for welding I think it would be ok. But the lazy Susan bearing is mild steel galvanised. You may have to grind off the galv to make it stick together. Be aware that welding galvanised. Spits and gives off cyanide gas. Someone did say the other week they did use rivets through all the all holes. Good luck mate hope it works out for you. I'm still using mine after a few years

would be a good idea to run a file over the bolt before taking the nut off .. or you might have trouble getting the nut back on :)
