And I'm not saying it can't EVER be done but weighing close to 100lbs and picking up a 900lb bike on a road/gravel surface sure isn't easy.
900lbs, little girl

That thing hardly "falls" farther than it leans on the sidestand. Anyway- it's much easier if you put the bike in gear or hold the brake.

Sounds like a cool job.

I could handle everything about it but the pay.

900# is not a big deal... just need to know how to do it.
