I used to have the same issue with my bike ramp and fitted a chock to the ramp . I replaced the crap on on the ramp with a good quality chock. No more problems .

Hi thanks for your KZread comments.i ask you a question re the Royal Enfield 350 stage 2 cam, I have another question regarding the same as I am still waiting for mine to come , I'm on the list. My question is did you actually get more top speed from fitting the new cam. What I'm hoping for is that my bike will be able to cruise at 70 when on motorways when we have to use them and so that I'm not running flat out at 70 and hammering the engine. By the I've been down to Eviet from Glencoe great run did it by car hoping to do it with the bike. Forget the spelling.

I hope you enjoyed my video and hopefully found it helpful 👍 Both the Classic 350 Reborn and the Meteor 350 have a top speed limiter. I can easily get to 75mph on the speedometer but it will not go any faster. The Hunter 350 on the other hand I’ve head can reach 87mph as it has no top speed limiter. If you install the 16 tooth gearbox sprocket it will lower the rpm at 70mph giving a more relaxed ride. The performance camshaft will definitely help in this case.

good idea! My Speed Triple 1200 is hard to balance with high performance tyres. But you need to tighten the allen key after you have tightened the pivot handle... The black hand screw, then the pivot and last the allen key.

Very helpful! I already have a wheel chock here... So in the future I'll use it to...

Now i am not being smart but thats the first thing that i thought of . I am waiting to get my Abba lift and ordered the front wheel chock with it . Its plain to see that you need to hold the bike upright while you use the Abba lift . The front wheel chock sould come with it its very simple . I watched a few vids and realised that the front wheel chock is a must.

Thanks for your input, very helpful. I’m sure you’re going to love your new ABBA SkyLift when it arrives, great peace of kit 👍

Well done Tiger Ness. I may well get one as although I strap my Hunter to the column on the Skylift your solution is very straight forward and useful even when using the Skylift to support the bike. Who is the manufacturer of the wheel chock please?

Thanks for the video Ian, is there a specific model number for the Laser wheel chock you has there is more than one. I have tried a wheel chock but it didn't work as the width of the 350’s tyre is too narrow. Thanks.

Laser 5671 Motorcycle Stand/Wheel Chock Purchased from Amazon. It works very well on all my bikes. Hope this helps 👍

Just a thought,will they not actually go up from the centre stand ?

@tigerness5555

8 ай бұрын

Great to hear that you enjoyed my video and hopefully found it helpful 👍 No it doesn’t. The centre stand gets in the way and also inhibits the operation on the lift.

It all seems a bit fiddly to me I have a hydraulic work bench from bike it international it locks the front wheel and with two tie down straps at the rear it is perfectly safe as for storage just park a bike in it or use it as another workbench. But each to their own I do enjoy your videos though.👍

@tigerness5555

8 ай бұрын

Great to hear that you enjoyed my video and hopefully found it helpful 👍 I did consider a bench, but the Sky Lift allows me to remove both wheels at the same time which a bench wouldn’t. It also holds the bike very securely without having to strap it down.

Great idea 👍

You had me worried by the title of this one Tiger! However I encountered the same issue when I bought my skylift and solved it in the same way as you (great minds eh?). I have to raise the front wheel of my R1250RT slightly anyway, as even with the lift in its lowest position it is still too high to fit the first connector onto the swinging arm. The Abba holds the RT perfectly - no need to worry about a lightweight like the Tiger 900 😎

It's a better solution than the extra strap bodge. Tiger. Having to purchase both puts you in the price range of a table lift. Regards Edward

Just received mine today, a few issues with it to be honest apart from the "abba shuffle" as I call it. 1/ the bottom spring attachment is bizarre, unless I've attache it incorrectly. 2/ Supplied nut & bolt that replaces the foot pedal clevis pin (the nut supplied is to thick to fit in place) luckily I had a shallow nylock nut. 3/ It won't reach full height (short by around 15mm) to fit the safety clevis pin. Anyone else had issues? Steve
