working on an 850t without wheels

[BIF]

I am going to do a lot of work on my 850T and I need to support it while working on it without wheels. I have considered hanging off the legs of my auto lift with straps, but it is going to be there for a while and I don't want to tie up the lift that long. I also considered putting it on a hydraulic table and lifting in the center, but I am  a little worried about stability. The work will encompass new tires, and a new twin disc setup for the front and checking the rear brakes, and polishing the rims. The tank,front fairing and fender are going to the paint shop, and the bike will get a brand new Bender wiring harness, so it is going to be a long project. what do you guys do when you have no wheels?

I built a set of saw horse type supports years ago when I was doing a Ambo restore & my LM3 clutch.  It was long before working at the Guzzi dealers. Been using them all along all these years. Made from wood one under front lower tree & one under rear frame rails by where shocks mount. I don't spend $ when I can make things for cheap.

I whipped this box together about 20 years ago and it has come in handy many times since.

I hang them from a sound ceiling beam (rafter) using a couple of Come-Alongs.

I am currently rebuilding a T3. I am using a combination of a chain hoist from a gantry track, floor jack, center stand and a small motorcycle lift depending what I am doing. I just ordered two new tires an hour ago so it will be on the wheels shortly. The bike was an absolute mess, semi basket case, it has obviously been apart before. Quite a few SAE fasteners and the wiring has been all hacked to hell. First Guzzi I have done so I have had to back track a couple of times.
