I have a wheel chock for each bike, they are nice to have , but I really want a table lift...only one will suffice,...please mrs santa.

 

Was thinking about getting chocks like this for each bike in my garage, to keep them upright, and make it easier to get them in and out of the garage, and hold them up better for maintenance, too. But then, my wife pretty much gave her bike to our son, so now there's only 1 bike in the garage, so space is no longer limited. Still, it might be nice for maintenance, but is that convenience worth the cost? Who knows?

 

Hey Franks, thanks for the link, thats a pretty slick stand. To be honest I’ve seen a few vids on the use of a chock and am a bit concerned with wrestling a 850# RG out of it and also adding mounts to the garage floor so it doesn’t move during loading.

Does anyone have any feedback on that aspect of using the chock on the garage concrete floor?

 

The Condor chock has holes at the ends of the base "legs" that can be used for securing it. You could use wedge type concrete anchors. If you want to move the chock, you can unbolt it and screw some barrel nuts onto the anchors to protect the threads.

Many years ago I bought a Baxley chock for my SuperGlide, the front wheel rides over center and the is locked in to place by the rotating part. I tried putting the Road Glide in the Baxley unit and trying to back out the 850# bike was a challenge. since then I have purchased a Wheeldock unit, minimal roll on height (3/8th of an inch) very easy to back out and is locked in to the chock, nothing going over center and rocking the front wheel into a chock. Also purchased a scissors jack with a wide table and footing for getting the wheels off the ground for cleaning.

 

I have three bikes side by side. ZX14, Heritage Softail Classic and Ducati. Straight up it saves room too. Drive in. It grabs the front wheel and I walk away. Baxley. I get the $199 one and wait for 15% off like it is now. I look at the oil before I leave because it's all level.
See link below. I always check it on Amazon, Ebay and go with the cheapest route. Most of the time 15% off direct is cheapest.

Again....if the chock you are looking at has a rocker to drive over and back out of, that heavy old bike is going to be PITA to get in and out of.... consider Wheel Dock...or at least look at them. I had HF chock for my Sportster and it worked well. When I started pulling the chock out of the garage trying to get my Street Glide out, I knew it was time to change. I did not want to drill holes in my garage floor, and did not want to try to use a work around like sheet of plywood to help hold the chock...so I opted for the Wheel Dock. Simple...ride/push on, then step on release lever and gently back out. Simple operation.
But..... good luck on your decision. This is my opinion...and you may come up with a plan that works!!!

 

I have a wheel dock and a condor, the condor hangs on the wall. The wheel dock is easy to roll into and out of.
