Wouldn't the rear pegs fold? You would need to either flip them or make them rigid. Still an idea.
I need a good way to oil the chain so lifting the rear is important for me.

There's a part that does fold right next to the swingarm, same as the front.

I looked at this the other night, muffler's in the way, so won't work.

To each his own. I like the hydraulic jack that lifts the thing a couple feet off the ground. Both wheels are off the ground, and I can sit on a short stool while doing all those time-consuming things a double-RYCA build demands. I'd hate to be spending hours per day kneeling or sitting on the concrete. The kinds of things I need to be doing with these two projects just wouldn't work with a piece of wood lifting one wheel an inch off the floor.

If you think there's good in everyone, you haven't met everyone.
