You will need: 1) One 12 inch Shepherd® Hardware Lazy Susan Bearing (9549) 2) One 12x12 sheet of 1/4 inch steel 3) Some PC-Metal epoxy (or simple weld) 4) Three 12 inch strips of 3M™ Safety-Walk™ Heavy Duty Tread tape, UPC 59512. The tape keeps the center stand from simply sliding on the smooth steel. The tape I got was a bit over 4 inches wide. Total cost to me was around $34.
@HunterXray Ah, so the lazy susan bearing sits underneath the sheet of steel right on the concrete? Where did you get a lazy susan bearing rated for 1000 lbs?
cool idea.... very impressed. and also, the vfr is a great bike. couldnt get anymore REAL. I dont ride to work on a race track, and i very much doubt
sparkywundermutt does either^^ btw i ride yamaha. personal preference....... personal choice........ but im not of the opinion yamaha are the greatest or any more REAL than other manufacturers...... FTW attitude's suck, not honda
It took you 10 times longer to find that damn plate and get it possitioned than it would have for you to just back out. Btw, buy a real bike, Honda sucks.
In this video it takes longer then it usually does. I also would rather take more time turning it around then risk dropping it because my foot slipped on some gravel.
A "real bike" you say? What would a "real bike" be?
Ok, if you said Harley Davidson I was going to puke lol. I see nothing wrong with Kawasaki or Suzuki though. I don't know why Honda sucks, because I've never had trouble with any of mine.
Well, why dont you buy a Honda and Yamaha(which you forgot) and try em out!! You will find that all of the Japanese brands are equally reliable, but you WILL find that you like one or the others ergos or sercive procweddure better!

How did you make that? Or where did you buy it. I'd like to do the same for my VFR.
