It's no good the back and knees can't take the scrabbling about on the floor anymore! I suffer for days after doing any work on the bikes.
I was going to get a proper table lift but my new workshop is a single garage so I think I'm going to have to buy a stand. I've looked at what's on offer but I'm not looking to spend £500 on an ABBA stand or similar. I have seen one called an eazy rizer at £350.
Anyone else recommend one ?
Bearing in mind my other bike is a big heavy bike too.

Re: Motorcycle stands
Make sure you get one long enough.. I bought one with a ramp to get the bike on, but if you take the ramp off, it's too short.. Should have gone for the longer one with the removable flap at the back.
