The best "Nods" are those that i receive before i give one... i do not feel [...]

You are doing everything absolutely correct and also teaching your son how to enjoy motorcycling in a safe, responsible manner. I have started to do this with my 9-year old grand-daughter who loves going out on the bike. The main safety concern is that it should not be possible for the youngsters legs to enter [...]

Good find!

Certainly worth a try using this at the price. You will need to suitably paint & grease the bearing and any wood/metal plates you use to prevent corrosion/rot.

Make sure that the diameter of the turntable is much bigger than the width of your mainstand or you will have difficulty getting the bike placed on it properly.

However, you can buy a 'bike-turntable' to go underneath the mainstand (at a price) which makes turning [...]
