I know I wouldn't want to do it if the seller told me that was how it was going to be done. I would pass on the bike and wish him good luck. I would look at those terms of sale to be a scam...one where I would be help-up for the cash I was carrying, and see the thieves riding away in their car with my money in their hands.

So that's why I am asking how you do it...safely.

I need to maybe put a 2x4 on each side of the bike when parked and see how well I can rock the bike a bit or get on and off. A pair of 12” shocks would be a lot cheaper than selling the bike. If I wait to sell I might gain a riding season but possibly not have enough residual value left to sell the King and go to another ride later, especially if my health deteriorates further.
Still, something to consider
But I’m now also chewing hard on the idea of simply lowering my King. If I installed 12” shocks and went away from the Hammock seat I might gain 2+ inches though still not sure if my balance would be ok or if I could get enough knee bend to maneuver the bike.
