Motorcycle Dolly

It's not that my homemade dolly, made from a car dolly, didn't work OK it was just a little cumbersome and hard to get up on the center stand with that half inch board beneath it.  Pulling the bike up on the center stand is something I want to avoid for now.  Anyhow I've had my eye on this little jewel from Harbor Freight for a while now.  At 99$ plus $10 shipping the price was right and before long FEDEX set it right at my garage door.  It should have only taken about 30 minutes to put it together but with my lack of flexibility and weak leg it was more like two hours.  The instruction recommended that two people load it up and move it around, I figured I could handle it by myself. 

The first night in the garage I placed it on

the side with the bike leaning into the garage, much like the first picture.  Only problem was Sue's big arsed van wouldn't fit in without shoving in the right side mirror.  My wifey can't be so inconvenienced so I got the bright idea to turn it around 180 degrees and bingo, worked like a charm.  I was even able to keep some boxes of Sue's work stuff piled around it. 

Today, being a fine Kansas motorcycling day, I got to try out the new dolly.  Just swung it out, locked the ramps down, removed the forward pin and rolled it off ready to ride.  Nothing could be more simple.  After returning from a fine 77 mile jaunt, the long way to Kanapolis lake and back, it was a simple matter of running it onto the dolly, lifting up the ramps, returning the safety pin and rolling it back to it's parking place.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this dolly to anyone.  It is supposed to be good for 1250 pounds and there appears to be a good 6-8 more inches of wheelbase left so it would accommodate a much bigger bike.  Question now is, do I need one for the REB?
