This $200 accessory helps me lift a 450 pound motorcycle
In an earlier video, I demonstrated how I used a $5 strap to help me lift my fallen Yamaha Tenere 700 adventure motorcycle. I received many comments urging me not to use this method is it would be prone to injuring my back. Viewers also urged me to try other proven methods to lift a heavy motorcycle. Not only is the Yamaha T7 heavy, but it is top-heavy and it lies flat on the ground when dropped. Many other adventure motorcycles lie at an angle when dropped, making them easier than the T7 to get momentum to lift. And being a senior citizen of slight build, I have not been able to consistently lift up a dropped T7 on back roads terrain. Riding solo, I have worried about dropping my T7 and being unable to lift it in the wilds. I still ride with my $5 strap, but now I also carry a $200 strap that gives me confidence to lift my 450 pound motorcycle on uneven terrain. Come join me on a short ride where I demonstrate my new safety accessory.
