By now you will know that by SuperBike or Retro we mean any bike that DOES NOT have a duplex frame slung below either side of the engine, and that we apply this term regardless of the bike's performance. We only use the term to describe the style of chassis that offers a narrow, streamlined lower frame structure, as favoured by the current crop of sports bikes.

So let's look at the two lifting options available for this type of bike - Wheel Mounting and Multi-Mounting.

In reality these brackets can be mixed and matched to suit any particular job that you have in mind, thus you could lift your bike by the front wheel and the rear chassis mount, or via the rear wheel and the front Multi-Mount if more convenient.

Wheel Mounting Dimensions

The following charts show the maximum and minimum wheelbase dimensions that EazyRizer can deal with. To verify that your machine conforms with these settings, use the side stand to support the bike and then measure forward and rearward from the point where the foot of the side stand touches the road - to the CENTER of each wheel. You should check both of these dimensions individually rather than the overall wheelbase dimension, for the fore-aft location of the side stand varies from bike to bike. You will find that the tolerances shown accommodate 99.9% of all modern bikes.

Minimum Wheelbase Dimensions

By studying the photograph below you will appreciate that the two 'hoop'
shaped Wheel Mounting brackets are able to slide in and out of the main
lifting arm, thus allowing you to individually adjust each bracket to achieve
the stated dimensions (remember to mark these positions for next time).

While your bike is raised by this method it is still possible to
turn the wheels by hand by applying an upward rotational motion
to the wheel - thus facilitating thorough cleaning. This is made
easier by the external coating applied to the brackets.

Would you expect anything less from a well engineered product
that has been honed and refined by genuine bikers
around the world?

Multi-Mounting Brackets

In order to raise your machine as in the photograph above, you will use
the Multi-Mounting brackets which support either the chassis direct or
an alternative location. Most bikes can be raised in full road going trim,
some may require part of the lower fairing to be slipped off - which can
usually be done in seconds courtesy of the normal speed fasteners.

Multi-Mounting Brackets

As with the Wheel Mounting option, each Multi-Mounting bracket is fully adjustable to suit your bike's characteristics, but in this instance they slide externally along the lifting arm. The forward bracket is designed to cradle the engine sump, the chassis frame or the exhaust collector pipes - dependant upon your specific bike or the task that you wish to perform.

Exhaust Collector Pipes.
Lifting a bike via the engine sump or the chassis frame requires no clarification here, but one of the most frequent questions posed to our technical department by SuperBike owners is:
"Are you sure my collector pipes can support my machine?"
The answer is always the same,
" YES "

Although on many occasions you may elect to lift the front of your bike from the sump or the chassis, the question "can I lift via my collector pipes?" is perfectly understandable - but the simple fact is that supporting SuperBikes from the front collector pipes is an Industry Standard Procedure and is used throughout the industry by manufacturers, the retail & maintenance trade and competition departments across the world. This is borne out by the fact that we only get asked this question by private owners, because the trade are familiar with this technique.

Manufacturers use EazyRizer to lift customer bikes via the collector pipes!

Once you appreciate that the integral chassis design of some SuperBikes dictates that the front end MUST be lifted from the collector pipes, you will realise why the exhaust systems were designed from the outset to accommodate this procedure. Our customers NEVER have a problem with this Industry Standard Procedure, even elderly machines with corroded systems - remember, everyone gets a Money Back Guarantee, so you can be damned sure we'd know if they had a problem!

In the above shot you can clearly see the front mounting cradling the collector pipes. It is worth noting that EazyRizer spreads the weight of the bike between the front mounting, the rear mounting and the side stand, this limits the front mount to supporting approx 40% of the weight. The wide based cradle and the rubber pads take care of your system. Incidentally, most after-market thin-wall stainless steel and titanium systems are actually stronger than their chromium plated, mild steel counterparts. If you still have any queries regards the collector pipe situation, then by all means e-mail your thoughts to our Technical Department.

The above diagram illustrates how the front mounting (right-hand side) and the rear mounting are able to slide along the lifting arm to adopt the perfect lifting position for your bike. It also shows how each one can be adjusted vertically to allow every bike to be raised in a horizontal plain. All cradle surfaces have bonded rubber pads to preserve your paintwork in A1 condition. The mounting brackets are designed to be slid on to the lifting arm after EazyRizer has been positioned under the bike, thus guaranteeing no accidental contact with your lower fairing.

The rear mounting bracket can cradle either the monoshock, the gearbox, the center stand, or the center stand mounting point if the stand is not fitted. Thus you can cope with any configuration of bike and carryout any maintenance task. Regardless of the job you wish to undertake, you can always support an alternative position to facilitate good access. Most users instinctively go for the monoshock, but obviously if you wish to remove the rear suspension, you must lift via one of the alternative points.

Since you do not have any hydraulics to worry about, you can quite happily leave your bike in the raised position for as long as you wish. And remember - it can't possibly come down on its own due to its failsafe design.

'Mix and Match'
Mounting Bracket Variations

The true versatility of EazyRizer comes from its ability to cope with
virtually any scenario of bike or task. Regardless of the combination
of mounting requirements, EazyRizer has the answer by allowing you
to Mix and Match the mounting brackets to suit the situation.

Thus you could support your bike by the front wheel and the chassis
or via the rear wheel and the chassis. You decide.

The above shot highlights this ability perfectly as we see the normal
arrangement for lifting scooters - using a front Wheel Mounting bracket
at one end of the lifting bar and a Beam Mounting bracket at the rear to
securely support the center stand. This general principle can be used
to good effect with SuperBikes and Retros by allowing you to mix the
Multi-Mount and Wheel Mounting brackets,
giving you total freedom of use.

Specialised Mounting Brackets

Whereas the vast majority of bikes can be lifted straight away by using
combinations of our standard bracket sets, we have introduced specialised
mountings to overcome specific issues which affect certain bike makes
and models. With regard to SuperBikes and SportsBikes, if you own one
of the following machines, please review the data relating to your bike.

'Your' Mounting Bracket Options

The mounting bracket options available for SuperBikes and Retros are
Wheel Mounting and Multi-Mounting.

Multi-Mounting Click to Magnify

Many owners choose to order more than one set of mounting brackets to achieve total flexibility of operation and to enable them to service any type of bike in the future. It is possible to mix one bracket from each type of mounting set to enable you to lift by either front or rear wheel and one chassis point.

If you wish to be able to service any type of bike
you may well choose to equip yourself with the
Beam Mounting option as well.
