if it can hold that heavy pig a sportbike should be no prob.

Sur eit can hold it in a driveway but I wouldnt mount that thing to my trailer and put a bike on there and take it for a ride. Looks a bit flimsy comapred to a condor or a baxley.

Dude, I've used these for decades without a single failure... that thing is a beast compared to this.

and how would that be? That is a wheel chock, used to hold a tire stable during transport or on a lift... this is a wheel chock used to hold a tire stable during transport or on a lift. I understand that people also use the more complicated ones to park their bikes in... why I don't know. Broken kickstand? No rear stand? You know that chock would go great with my roller stand though....hmmmmm....

I personally only use a wheel chock on a trailer or on a lift table which usually comes with one.

The stand Racer X posted is one of the "more complicated" stands.

It does more than act as a parking stop, it locks the wheel into place and holds the bike once rolled into place.

You understand, but don't know??

I have a few Sport Chock brand - and I use them for all my bikes. But then, my bikes are trackbikes that do not have sidestands.

Ed. The one you posted - I would use that in a trailer with tie-downs. But, it appears to be a bit flimsy and the idea that a bike could get knocked over in one.... no thank you.
