Working on a system to hoist the Rune easy and safely to change tires.
Also, the forums I've watched have talked of a lack of grease in the rear driveshaft splines and fretting of the metal occurring. So...
given that the Rune has a keel, like a boat, I've got an adaptor built to mount through the engine holding bolt, and supported at the front and rear by solid points.
Next I've put two beams trough the lift, and will attach a plate to the beams. I have to make it so I can put the bike through and into the front wheel chock, then attach the adaptor, then weasel the beams and plate in.
Shouldn't be too hard. Mocking up now...
