Lazy Susan?

**NZPETE** · 2nd March 2010, 19:51

Brought a good one off T-me a while back. Just go to t-me motors and type in dolly. Under 200 bucks and easily does a 320kg bike.
You can put your bke anywhere with this baby! If you cant find it, get in touch with me.
Cheers! Pete.

You can make a lazy Susan or some type of dolly using ball transfers:

These will take 45kg each,so use however many you need to support the weight of the bike.Fairly low cost too: $ 4 ea

Buy a bearing and make your own turntable.

The 50 kg rating might be a problem

**zealchick** · 4th March 2010, 20:34

what a dam good idea!

**YellowDog** · 7th March 2010, 11:12

Well that's a nice idea, but my drive is on a steep slope.

Practise practise practise... If you think its going to be a disaster, best you video it for us. Pretty please?

I would imagine it would be possible to turn across the garage door, then back it in? Depends on your steering lock tho, how much footing you have etc.

Maybe something like this? If it isn't a turntable, it should be

**YellowDog** · 9th March 2010, 05:49

So here's my choice:

http://www.radardirect.co.nz/new/frameset/ @ $500.63 inc tax & GST
OR
http://www.motorworks.co.uk/bmw/prod...r_text_image=0 @ $279 inc tax & shipping

50% of the cost of the second item is shipping!

It's a tough one!

Maybe I should consider importing in bulk and opening an NZ website and selling these at $395 per unit inc tax and shipping.

I guess that this is one of the problems with having a small domestic market.

But I have decided not to make this market smaller as I need it sooner rather than later.

It is my choice, my right, and my decision.

I would however prefer to pay less.

Just found an old photo of the "turntable" sold by Radar Direct - a nice compact unit.

**doc** · 15th March 2010, 06:46

Just found this one. I like the idea

A Lazy Susan style turntable would be an ideal solution to save a lot of messing around. [/SIZE]

Buy this and mount it in your garage floor
