I have a Yamaha TT-R 125LE and I want to put it up on a stand to get the wheels off the ground (or at least take some of the weight off of them). I plan on using just a 5 gallon bucket as a stand. Where is the best place to grab the bike and lift it up?
If you have the height and strength, try this.
–Stand on the left side of the bike.
–Bucket on the floor on the left side of the bike, right in front of your feet.
–Left hand on the left hand grip.
–Right arm over the seat.
–Right hand under the rear of the seat.
–Lift up the rear of the bike.
–Use your body as a brace as you're lifting the rear up.
–If you have the strength, pull the rear of the bike towards you and place on Bucket.
–If the bike's a little heavy to move while the rear wheel is up, push the bucket under the bike with your foot.
