   Motorbike Sidestand Turntable - Small to Large Bikes   $590.00

Tiiiippppssssy

I wonder what the freight is on one of those things...

I'm going to have to find a local engineering joint around here to knock me up one, pretty sure it'll be cheap then that

Maybe it's just me, but I can't say I have ever needed one of those things.  OK, maybe if space is tight it could be useful to store a bike up against the wall, but from my experience even when I had 2 bikes and a load of stuff in a single garage I managed fine. 

Now if we were talking bike lifts, that would be different...

It would save me doing a 200,000 point turn in my garage

 :rofl :rofl :rofl have you counted then?

Why not just back it out - or back it in if there is an incline outside the garage?  Just asking...

My driveway is on a decline too, so I just sit on the bike and let gravity reverse me out - job done!
