These work ok if you are that bothered about running different gearing.

Dirty overalls = muppetry

I've got my bike tucked away at the end of my garage and this inevitably involves a bit of pushing and pulling to get the bike away. Have any of you come across the Motoboy before?



"The Motoboy Motorcycle Mover is a wheeled trolley for moving your bike around in confined spaces. Featuring four swivel casters and a very low platform. Simply by placing your bike's centre stand on the Telefix MOTO-BOY and releasing the foot operated brake you can move your bike in any direction with the minimum space and effort. You can move bikes into normally inaccessible spaces without scratching bodywork or soiling clothes. Once in position the Moto Boy can be safely braked in the required location. Maximum capacity 350kg"

Seen it before, but it seemed quite expensive.

I've got plenty room in my garage anyway, but a good idea though.




When I saw the pic I thought for a minute you'd gone all retro
