Make sure you have the bike on max preload, eat five shreaded wheat and get the missus to have a word with it, no problem. Oh, and a couple of mates round as well. And good luck launching the bike off afterwards.

Why do all the movers have plastic, not rubber wheels?

I have to say that I love the idea of these but money and space are a factor ....

£416.00. Plus shipping.
Thinking about it I don’t think it’s too bad. Nippy Norman charging £250 for a set of Wunderlich standard ones. (I know you can buy cheaper)
Trouble is that BMW could change the side of the swing arm again on the next updated model

I’ve got the wunderlich one, it’s not a doddle to spin the bike but it’s certainly easy enough to use. I’m amazed at the number of people on here who say they can’t put their bike on the centre stand - what’s that about?

Given that these multi-directional wheels are readily available on eBay it should not be beyond UKGSER’s to adapt an existing one to achieve something similar.

Probably lots of riders with bad backs like me. Also lots of us that that in truth have bought a bike that is too big. Personally I think if you sit on a bike and your legs are fully extended to the floor then it’s too big for you. ie you just don’t have the leverage to shove the bike backwards on a slight incline and to also stop yourself falling over sometimes.
I constantly see riders that can’t manoeuvre their bike very well (and I’m of them even at 6ft but only have 31” leg) whilst sitting on it especially on uneven ground or loose gravel.
All just my own opinion and of course there are some riding gods out there but they also realistically struggle to manoeuvre the bike if it’s too tall for them or just not as strong as they think they was.
It’s a bit like the older I get the faster I was.

I’ve a Biketek one, same as this, https://www.thevisorshop.com/Mobile/en/gb/BikeTek-Deluxe-Centre-Stand-Bike-Mover/m-m-20567.aspx

Works great on my rugged floor, the rough concrete and uneven tiles outside the garage.

Wheels are robust and I’ve had both the little and large Tenere on it and moved with ease. £80 on eBay if you search for one.

No good if you want to change the tyres.

I thought it was about storage.

Think you will need more than one stand
