Lockable motorcycle stand
Abstract
The lockable motorcycle stand is composed of two major systems: a supporting system and a restraining system. The supporting system is designed to support the weight of the motorcycle during the various uses for the lockable motorcycle stand. The supporting system is designed to use leverage to move the lockable motorcycle stand from a retracted position to an extended position, whereby the motorcycle is lifted off the ground when the lockable motorcycle stand is in the extended position. The restraining system is designed to lock the lockable motorcycle stand into the extended position, securing the motorcycle to the lockable motorcycle stand thereby facilitating repairs, storage, or transport.
