dolly for a Road King
I have a very tight space that my new Road King has to fit in. I can get into it just fine, but baking out or turning the bike around so I can get out is going to be pretty tough. It's kind of a side-yard with a 90-degree turn right behind the door. It's barely as wide as the bike is long.
I was thinking of getting a dolly on wheels so I could just spin it around in place and Harbor Freight has this dolly...20% off until tomorrow.

anyone have one? Will it fit a 2012 Road King Classic? I've read that the kick stand portion may not be long enough for some bikes so I'm a bit concerned.
I see that DropTail also makes a really nice dolly at almost 5x the price that comes with a nice wheel chock too so you don't have to use the kick stand, but it's too long to spin around in the space I have, so let me know if you have experience with this dolly and a Road King.

You are gonna have to explain that better or take a picture.
check these out - www.legalspeeding.com Their video looks pretty good. I have been wanting to try this one but hesitant to try and use this to lift my bike. It looks like this might be good for a tight space.

more worried about the kick stand - Most of the reviews say that's where the problem would be IF there was one...from what I've seen, Harley kick stands come out pretty far but nobody mentions them...only BMW's
