Cheers for the link, nice stands.. But I fear for my genitalia should I mention buying a £300 + stand to Mrs Nutz

D6Nutz, the bike is quite manageable enough on the ABBA stand ... my bike sits quite close to a cupboard and its handle. Theres only an inch in the photo and it gets there by moving the bike while its on its stand ... id get closer if it wasnt for my golf bats
That's a cracking piece of kit! However I can't see it working properly in my garage with its stippled floor surface, but maybe a resurface is required. I have a cunning plan....
I checked and it's just over £460 delivered for my 675 with the extras, which puts it in the same bracket as workshop style bike lifts, but it's much more versatile and takes up a smaller space in the garage, partial disassembly could reduce the space required even further. I am very impressed, should Mrs Gee feel generous at Christmas/Birthday I would consider myself a very lucky boy.

I think a job for a warm summer weekend will involve borrowing a cement mixer and using Latex self-levelling compound to give me a nice level floor, the garage will need to be cleared and power washed first, but the result will be worth it. I may even use floor paint afterwards.
