[QUOTE="jmgrif, post: 1282748, member: 17460"] I won't laugh! I did almost the same thing a couple of years ago! I was trying to raise the bike high enough to remove the centre stand. I made a pipe stand but couldn't ratchet the bike high enough to get it airborne? Ahh Grasshopper, lift bike on table lift, tie off to pipe stand and just lower table stand! Should work eh? Nope, one of the two tie straps slipped while the back tire is in the air and the bike is about 3ft of the ground.... tilting precariously on top of me! I was very lucky a neighbour had come over to watch so was able to help right the situation. Just plain dumb! [/QUOTE]
