Abstract:
1. A motorcycle turntable comprising: an elongated ramp assembly having an approximate midpoint, opposed outer ends, an obverse side, a reverse side, and an outer low friction skid plate attached to said reverse side generally adjacent each of said opposed outer ends, said elongated ramp assembly being adapted to supporting a motorcycle thereon; and a pedestal-bearing assembly adapted to being pivotally engaged with said elongated ramp assembly at said approximate mid-point, said pivot pedestal-bearing assembly being adapted to supporting said approximate mid-point at a mid-distance from a substrate, said outer low friction skid plates being thinner than said mid-distance, at least two medial low friction skid plates mounted respectively to said reverse side generally intermediate said approximate mid-point and each of said outer low friction skid plates, said medial low friction skid plates being thicker than said outer low friction skid plates and thinner than said mid-distance, and said elongated ramp assembly being adapted to flex sufficiently under the weight of said motorcycle to permit said respective low friction skid plates to contact said substrate, said motorcycle weighing at least 500 pounds.
