Lazy Susan?

**YellowDog** · 2nd March 2010, 14:33

Everytime I get home I ride up into my garage and then procedd to do a 3/4/5 point turn (depending upon how my wife has parked the car).

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

I have tried the pivot on sidestand thing but would prefer not to knacker my garage floor or bike sidestand; so I was wondering if anyone knows of a solution?
(no I can't reverse in)

I could build you a turn table, ride bike on either turn the table by hand or push button and have an electric motor do the work. Though I am in Welly.

I spin my bike around on the side stand all the time. but I stand on the other side of the bike and pull it towards me.
No so good to try it with a 250Kg+ BMW though
