My concern would be, Top heavy narrow base. start moving it sideways, catch a small stone, etc, on the floor and,..........OOOOOPS. On Tuesday, January 6, 2015 1:40 AM, "Mike Huber minoman59@... [DSN_KLR650]" DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com> wrote:
  I was thinking that mounting the front and rear wheels to a 1/4 metal straps....  and you could also use those dolly wheels that have the locking lever to keep it from rolling when you drive onto it.

That seemed right but thought it might be 2x12. His name is Jameson and on a FB KLR group. I hope he comes through here some time to collect the pie & coffee I owe him. Great design and very generous in sharing.   ------ Original Message ------ From: "Martin Earl" To: "DSN KLR650" DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com>; "Norm Keller" Sent: 2015-01-05 11:36:03 AM Subject: Re: [DSN_KLR650] Re: Motorcycle mover   Thanks Norm. I am space challenged, and have to move stuff all the time to get a bike out, or move bikes to get stuff out/off the shelves the bikes are parked up against.  Way to much huffing and puffing and scraping and scratching. sigh. In airplanes, we call the resulting damage, hanger rash...on a KLR not so important other than the time it takes. What a great gadget. I am concerned that the aft wheels mounted to a cantilever of wood will not last very long. The front chock must be studied carefully.  I also see there would be a difference for a 3.0 front tire and a 3.25 (which I use) as well as the difference between a Kenda 270 and a D606 for width. He has a couple of nice features where the front and rear wheel have their own little mini choc that you ramp over. What I see in this, you could easily put 4 bikes in the space of 2.75 or 3 footprints. martinearl. On Mon, Jan 5, 2015 at 12:10 PM, 'Norm Keller' normkel32@...
