Hi Folks,
We're getting soaked here in Virginia with rains from Ida. My garage/barn has a gravel floor which flooded and turned it into mush. So one of my NTs tipped over on its right side. It was on its center stand, but with water everywhere, just not enough firm ground underneath it. Thankfully everything on the bike looks intact.
I searched these pages and didn't find any wisdom about how to bring an NT back upright. I don't have anyone to help me, being a self absorbed loner (as my ex-wife would describe me), so I have to do it on my own.
A jack would just sink into the same muck. There is an area that is still firm onto which I would move the bike once it is mobile.
I'm thinking of attaching a come along to the far side wall then running a rope to the bike. But where do you think I should attach the rope to the bike? Take off the seat and attach to the frame there? Attach to the grab handles?
