Hmmm, doubt that'd work with a largish Triumph, like a Rocket or TBird...

Yep for sure. That trick would work I guess for a taller trail bile, or a small bike, so handy to know in that way. Manoeuvring larger bikes in confined spaces is always a trick though...

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I agree with the others about a larger bike.
My solution was to buy a garage dolly that works a treat.

My choice for moving my 600lb bike around is similar to Rocky's.

Yeah, I'm gonna stress the hell outuh my Bonny's side-stand lug, maybe breaking it off with her three hundred and ninety-five pounds of weight, so that I can do that turn thang . . . not! Though, I must admit, it is a pretty easy way to turn 'round a light-weight bike. So for that, cool . . .

Not to be done with a Ducati as the prop stand is bolted directly to the engine/gearbox casing and excessive enthusiasm could work out very expensive.
