     Does anyone use a chock or wheel holder/stand to park their bikes in or just use the stand?

    Just curious if people use them to keep the bike upright in limited space or it makes them easier to lock up to make theft harder?

    I use the stand, if I had somewhere to put a secure chock down I would use one; reckon they would come in handy from time-to-time!!

    I use both, just depends what I am doing.

    I think the wheel chock/cradle are a great idea, just push the bike in & walk away - just takes a bit to make yourself trust it. The HD one looks to be about twice the price of the ones I have.

    I have two in my trailer & one for the garage.

    I prefer the Strong Arm.

    Can be used anywhere, height adjustable, can lift front or back, robust and easy to use. Great for parking up and makes cleaning a lot easier.

     Harley actually make a center stand for the tourers, chrome, no difference to clearance, works a treat, can centre lift bike anywhere. Beats me why they don't come as standard.

    I use the Harley one that Rodders posted. I use it to wash the bike and service. Just got lazy one day and never put it back so now I just ride into it and get off.
