Bike turner

[Zoffo]

Just spent a week knocking my yard to bits and building a garage for the Bird. Now it's all done I'm finding it tight to manoeuvre in and out. What I need is one 'O' them bike turner jobbies that spin the bike in its own length. I can spin it on the centre stand but it wouldn't do it any good over time. Anyone know of a site that sells these things. Seen them on MCN but looked a bit pricey for what they were. Also had a look on ebay but I'm shit at finding stuff on there.

Have a word with Gypsy as he's got a turntable arrangement that works very well

the turntable i had made was simple ( look at Gypsy's black un in owners bikes)
two 18" x 1/4" steel discs
1 sheet of ptfe sandwiched between them
one dome headed bolt with nut
drill hole in centre of bottom plate big enough to fit nut into and weld
fit together but dont overtighten and cut off excess bolt length
weld bolt to nut and grind smooth
