Motorcycle Jack
A portable motorcycle jack is provided comprising a base arm and a lift arm hingedly joined for folding the two components together. The base arm has a foot that rests co-planar with the ground when in use. The lift arm is hingedly joined to the base arm at base end and has a cradle for engaging the motorcycle at an cradle end.
In another aspect, the base arm has a plurality of apertures arranged linearly and sloped relative to the base arm to provide adjustment in length of the motorcycle jack while maintaining the over-fulcrum angle of the base arm relative to the lift arm regardless of which length is selected.
REAR SHOCK TRAM GAUGE
A motorcycle frame rack enables a motorcycle frame to be repaired without removing many components from the motorcycle. A motorcycle is positioned on the motorcycle frame rack, secured in place and then the frame is adjusted using chains coupled to towers. A self-centering laser measuring system is able to be used to analyze and measure damage to the motorcycle frame.

Ergonomic front fork service tool
An ergonomic front fork service tool for servicing front fork tubes of a motorcycle includes a long threaded screw engaged in a threaded housing with a swivel foot at the bottom end and a large hand knob at the top end. The threaded housing is attached to a swinging arm attached to a vertical rod support. A base bar has a hollow tube attached at a right angle a distance away from its distal end, which receives and supports the vertical rod while permitting both swinging of the arm and vertical adjustment. The position between the rod and tube is locked by fasteners threaded transversally in the top wall of the tube. A portion of the base bar is used to support the service tool in a bench vise, or to fasten to a work bench, and two swinging gate clamps engage two front fork tubes and rigidly attach them during service to the bench top vertically.
IMPROVED APPARATUS FOR MANEUVERING PARKED MOTORCYCLES AND MOTOR SCOOTERS
A dolly for supporting a tyre of a motorcycle or motor scooter off the ground is provided. The dolly comprises: axially aligned wheels supported by a frame which has a frame part forward of the wheels and a frame part behind the wheels, the forward frame part having an open end being such that the motorcycle or motor scooter tyre can locate in the open end, at least one tyre gripping member on the forward frame part and adapted to wedge the tyre when the forward frame part is lifted and release the tyre when the forward frame part is lowered, and a wheel on the frame part behind the wheels.

Indexed collar clamps for telescoping stand
Indexed collar clamps allow for fast and easy adjustment of an associated telescoping stand, while preventing various underlying components from becoming dislodged from their respective positions over time. A telescoping stand may include an inner tube and an outer tube partially overlapping the inner tube. An overlapping end of the outer tube includes a compliance cut. A bushing is positioned between the inner tube and the outer tube and adjacent the compliance cut. The bushing includes a protrusion that indexes the bushing to an aperture in the outer tube. An indexed collar clamp is positioned over the outer tube and also adjacent the compliance cut. The protrusion from the bushing further indexes the bushing to a slot in the indexed collar clamp.
Bike repair stand
A bike repair stand includes a stand column, a leg mechanism including a slider, two first links, and two second links. The slider is able to slide on the stand column. Each of the two first links is pivotally joined to the slider and has an end adapted to abut the ground. Each of the two second links is pivotally joined to the stand column and one of the first links. A head seat is located on the stand column. A support mechanism includes a pole and two support levers. The pole is able to slide on the head seat. The two support levers are respectively fixed to two ends of an axle. The two support levers are pivotal with respect to the pole about the axle.
