Lift front or rear wheel off the ground depending on where you place the lift. 4x6, 2x4, and a fence post. Lift bike by pushing down with your foot while standing over your bike. Works GREAT.
Mine has been used a lot (kind of worn).

Re: Homemade Center Stand
I have almost the same one.
If you have any type of electrical issue, have your battery load tested before you do anything else. Any auto parts store will test it for free.

Re: Homemade Center Stand
Either way works. I should probably find a pipe to use instead of the 2x2. After the pictures I did add some carpet to the top just to protect the frame.

Re: Homemade Center Stand
Good idea. I'll be adding carpet to mine.
