Claim:
A motorcycle stand comprising: guides to aid the maneuvering of the motorcycle into the stand, a vertical arm to positively stop the motorcycle from rolling forward, a means to stabilize the stand perpendicular to the guides, a means for connecting the guides to the vertical arm thereby causing the motorcycle to rest its weight on the stand through the motorcycle wheel, a shoe pivotably mounted to the stand and closely fitting the profile of a motorcycle wheel for pushing the motorcycle wheel, a means of leverage attached to the shoe thereby multiplying a restraining force applied to the opposite end of the leverage to push and hold the motorcycle wheel securely without using the weight of the motorcycle, a means to press against the leverage thereby rotating the shoe and exerting the restraining force against the motorcycle wheel, a device to release the leverage and restraining force once the motorcycle wheel passes over the shoe, and a means to overcome the leverage and restraining force and reset the shoe.
