BikeTek Centre Stand Bike Mover Deluxe Black

Brilliant, very strong construction, used for Honda CB1300 & works great, really solid & large (braked) wheels mean easy to move around garage even over rubber flooring & carpet. The really low base of stand also means dead easy to get bike up on centre stand. Better than the "Constand" that I have for other bike.

Having decided it was too expensive to build my own (even at B&Q prices), I decided to go with this one. It looked more sturdier than other, cheaper models.However there are Pro's & Con's.The Pro's. Very solid construction and decent size castors for going across a bumpy concrete floor. Very manoeuvrable, meaning I can turn my Honda CB450DX c/w Fairing & 30litre Krauser Panniers virtually on a sixpence, the garage is just under 10Ft wide.The Con's. (I hope the designer/manufacturer will look at this). A lot of reviewers have made the comment of how difficult it is to get a bike - especially a heavy one - on to it's centre stand and with my ol' girl damned impossible!!So what's the answer, I hear you cry! Simples! First of all you need a plank of 30mm thickness, you'll see in my pictures I used an old work top which was ideal. NOTE you only need a piece that will fit between the castors and about 12-18inches long. By putting this behind the "mover" ride/push the bike over the lot and line up the centre stand to make contact with the mover and you will find that you have the right height for getting the bike up onto its' stand and the "mover" as if you were doing it normally. Ouilla!Now for my second gripe. You'll notice that the castors' are braked, great! Except for one thing, the brake is on the same side on ALL the castors'! Duh! This means that if you have a heavy bike and really need to Brake all 4 wheels you have to turn the two opposite ones to face the opposite way in order to get the brakes on/off!! unless you want to scrabble on the floor & reach under your bike and move them by hand - bit of a design cock up me-thinks!Thirdly, the mat is already cut after only two goes at get the bike to 'stand' on it, I hope replacements will be available when the time comesAnd finally, whilst I realise that the price may increase, why not design it so that a single foot operated bar allowed the pan to sit flat on the floor, the bike could be put on its centre stand without the need of bits of wood to raise the rear wheel. This foot operated bar could then pivot the castors into position thus raising the bike.Apart from all the Con's, this is a great piece of kit that allows me to move my bike around with relative ease and put it in places that I wouldn't have been able to, it means I can now get my car & bike into my Garage in the Winter.

Good service from Biketec.Bike difficult to put on stand due to increased height of mover, positioning has to be spot on with centre stand as well.Not too easy to move around but it does enable me to turn the bike and push it into the side of the garage.

The service from HGB MOTORCYCLES was second to none. The item is heavy and got lost over the Christmas period (delivery services busy). One Email was followed by a very prompt answer to look into it. Within the week it turned up. THANKYOU.The stand is brilliant. In use straight out of the box. Need it to move a CBF600 into the corner. Easy to move bike, even on the carpet in garage (ground insulation). Had to put rear wheel onto a spare paving square 9"/9" not strong enough to pull onto stand without help. OAP. Long wait, but worth it .Had the stand for a little while now. What an awesome bit of kit. I don't know why I struggled for so long. Should have got it years ago

Handy for putting a heavy motorcycle into a tight corner of my garage

I bought this as I keep my bike in a tight space and wanted to make things easier.After reading reviews I took advice and put a 40-50 flat piece of wood under my back wheel first.This allows for the height of the dolly.Popped it up on the centre stand.Took me 2 goes to get the positioning right.Then once it’s up it’s so easy to wheel about.If you want the front wheel off the floor just push the back end down and spin the bike around 360degrees.Makes servicing the chain / cleaning wheels so much easier.It now fits snug up against the wall either way without using the side stand.I’ll be able to spin it round before each use now to save me wheeling it out backwards.Only negatives are: individual wheel brakes are fiddly. This is minor as I only need to use 1 or 2 if at all.Also the rubber matting is useless on the top of it but that won’t be a big deal to change when needed.Overall a fantastic bit of kit.Wish I’d got it sooner.

It's useless . Tried everything and just cannot get the bike onto the mover. Despite locking the mover slides and there is a high risk of bike tipping over. Don't waste money on this. Should have listened to the previous reviewer..

The rubber mat on top tore the first time I used it, so effectively the mat is not protecting anything. This is the only negative worth mentioning, for the rest stunning.
