Slight out of place here since it's for bikes without center stands, but I assembled one of these today:

Great for getting that darn 250 out of the real bike's way!

No, but the Rebel really is a bit underpowered. But then again, I look like a gorilla on a unicycle when I ride it! Owned it for 2 years now and it's got 40 miles on it.
40 miles. !!! Wow that's nothing. But they are great bikes. How do you like that stand. Habor freight had them on sale last month I went to get one and they were sold out. Looks like it will work great
You're right, it's the Harbor Freight model (haulmaster brand). Seems to work like a champ, but the instructions were garbage. Step one might as well have been "Put it together." It came with 20 bolts for the casters and 8 different ones (same thread size) for the end pieces, but the BOM said '28' despite the differences.

Once i had it together I just flipped down those silver ramps (that also lift it off the wheels) and rolled it up onto it. Now I can slide it wherever! The Turnabike TAB ST for my CB should be here soon, too. No more backing into the garage, ever!

Which stand on sale? The habor freight one? Also if you lived closer I would try to buy the little rebel from ya Smile
My harbor freight one is pretty solid after its put together. Mine works ok except the casters are crap and don't roll easily and won't roll in a straight line or swivel around easily enough to turn in the direction you push them...have to always seesaw it back and forth to get it where you want it. The bike I have on it weighs 400lbs.
I'm getting the parknmove next week it works with center stand but it's high dollar. $200
You probably can just pick up the Rebel and place it where ever you want it !
Pretty true houtman. I've been grabbing the swing arm and telling it where I want it for some time now. This made it tremendously easier to slide it up against the wall though, behind the CB. I'm getting a turntable like elipten has solely to spin the bike around; I drive it too much to want to deal with a dolly that explicitly says not to drive onto it, and I like my CB too much to risk disobeying that!
I looked at the turntable. It's neat! Just drive in put bike on center stand and spin it around ready to exit.
On the Harbor Freight unit, is there a way to lock the casters so the unit doesn't roll away when you try to ride up on it - or how does that work?
