I would change the rollers for a better set to allow free movement, but it looks good. I have a 06 HD V-rod, and my back tire is 240 mm, so it wouldn't fit in the Dolley. Thank you for the video, it gave me the details I needed before I made the purchase.
This works well for you...I have seen these for cars as well. Makes spinning a car around very easy. I don't think I would trust it unless it was on level ground.
I'm definitely picking up one of these. I'll likely update the hardware and find some better casters to make rolling my 900 pound behemoth around the garage a bit less of a workout.
Much like you I have a small car and a half garage with six full size bikes and other stuff in it I bought the HF bike dolly some years back for 89 bucks to put my son's sportster on it and for the most part it does the job I'm not spending $600+ for a condor dolly
Nice video. Thanks for the info. Buying one today. Do you happen to know what the width of the main plates are? Planning on putting some wheel chocks on there.
Indian pursuit fits although you'll find that as you touch the dolly with the front wheel it will roll forward, so you need to stop the dolly in some way,
Yes. There are multiple holes for positioning the kickstand plate either more forward or back depending on where the one on your bike lands. Mine happened to be smack in the middle.
Oh man, sorry to hear. I didn't think of showing taking it off as for me that's the easy part, basically lift the kickstand and walk or ride it off slowly. Riding it up and aligning the kickstand was the harder one for me. Hope your bike is OK
LOL. Maybe I got lucky. The hard part for me was I kept putting the wheels on the wrong side!! But yes it is heavy too. I was 52 at the time of building it. So yeah, each year things seem heavier and heavier!
@@Mudslidex1 The bolts were awkward at the wheels ,difficult to get the spanner in . Remind myself never to give away a full set of ‘ spare spanner’s ’ as I definitely needed the one I didn’t have 🤣🤪🤪. Believe you me , I’m bloody aching now . But defo worth the purchase 👌
Because I'm not that skilled. Lol. But honestly I was going to try that but have read several times about the Tiger side stand being weak. I don't know if theres any truth to it, but I'd rather not find out the hard way
That kickstand trick would damage the garage floor unless you have a plastic kickstand protector. Plus the reason for this dolly is to move the bike around the garage with ease especially in tight spots or small garages.
I hear ya. Better quality wheels definitely would help. But for the price it’s still good. And you can always upgrade the wheels from any hardware store
Great video. I appreciate the upload and review!
Thanks for watching and replying. Hope it helped

Thanks. Yeah with a proper set of rollers this would work much better.

I would like to add it does work
Happy with purchase, £129 uk pounds
Glad to hear it works!

For $89 bucks you got a great deal! I find this dolly extremely useful. Does it roll as nice as a $600 one? No. But hey, it's cheap and it works
Awesome I have the same bike
Good info - thanks for posting
Thanks for sharing!! On my way to grab one myself!!
Thanks. Hope you like it.
Nice video. Thanks for the info. Buying one today. Do you happen to know what the width of the main plates are? Planning on putting some wheel chocks on there.
Joe - can you ride the bike forward off the ramp without backing it up?
Sure can. That’s exactly what I do. I drive up on it. Spoke it around and drive off it. It has built in ramps on both sides
Whats the TOTAL LENGTH it will hold?? Considering it but i have a stretched Hayabusa..74 inches long😮
How tall are you and how much does the bike weigh?
I have a fully dressed Indian pursuit (similar to a Harley Road Glide). Trying to see if it will fit. What is the length of your motorcycle?
61.25 inches is the wheelbase of my Tiger 900
Indian pursuit fits although you'll find that as you touch the dolly with the front wheel it will roll forward, so you need to stop the dolly in some way,
Can the tray for the kickstand be adjusted if needed?
Yes. There are multiple holes for positioning the kickstand plate either more forward or back depending on where the one on your bike lands. Mine happened to be smack in the middle.

Thanks. I'm considering buying one.
@@12yearssober Me too. How much are these?
@@kee7678
I think around $100 with the 20% off coupon.
I was hoping you would show taking it off. I just bought one. not an inch to spare for my CBR1000F. I dropped it taking it off.
Oh man, sorry to hear. I didn't think of showing taking it off as for me that's the easy part, basically lift the kickstand and walk or ride it off slowly. Riding it up and aligning the kickstand was the harder one for me. Hope your bike is OK
Easy to install???
Took me 3 hours , heavy , awkward and you need tiny fingers ,
Maybe at 59 I take longer and I sure do ache …

@@peterkenworthy9219 Don't you know the golden rule? As soon as you get rid of something...YOU WILL need it!! LOL
Why not just do the old lean the bike on the kickstand and spin it about trick?
Because I'm not that skilled. Lol. But honestly I was going to try that but have read several times about the Tiger side stand being weak. I don't know if theres any truth to it, but I'd rather not find out the hard way

LOL Try that with a 900 pound cruiser
I have this same dolly and it's junk, wheels need to be better

@@Mudslidex1 Yep I just took it to the dump, went on a got the Lest Roll Dolly $700 but well worth it
@@1964ser1those are nice!! Big difference in quality. Enjoy!
