After reading Dawg post about his new jack I got to thinking about starting a thread of items in our garages that make working on these thing less frustrating.

I picked up this rolling cart at an auction and fixed it up with all the tool that I use to service the bike. I just roll it up beside the lift table and everything it there and I'm not running around the shop looking for tools.

 

That's a good idea.

 

Here is a tie down set-up I made up to strap the bike down on the lift table and I use it when I trailer.

 

I really like that idea. I just wish there was a better way to tie down my RKC when it's on the regular lift. I'm always afraid it's going to tip over to the rear or front. Even with the straps on it.

 

Here are a few tool that I made up. The pliers are from a Surgical Supply and they work perfect for the clamp that the MoCo uses.
The long punch-I welded a long pipe to a punch to use when I change the oil. I put alumiumn foil under the filter and then punch a hole two holes in the end of the filter to drain it.
The socket with the wrench welded to it is for adj. the clutch. Loosen the nut and run the allen wrench through it-set it and tigthen the nut. Works good!
Ignition Lock it the last one.

 

I got the idea for these off of this forum. Thanks Guys

I mounted my battery tender on the wall on a switched power strip. Just pull in-hook up and flip the switch.

I picked up and old truck tool box and built a frame around it. We use it to keep helmet, gloves, maps, ect. ect.

 

Last one! Sorry for the big pics I thought they would be smaller. Anyway this is a little stool I made up from an old bar stool. It keeps me from crawling around on the floor. The older I get the more that hurts.

 

All good ideas.
Nice stoool...but what those casters cost, you could have bought a stool.

 

Your probably right (lol) but it wouldn't have been near as much fun!
