Abstract
A motorcycle ride-off stand having a generally U-shaped tubular housing which defines an internal open ended chamber. Mounted on the free end of each leg of the housing is a foot pad assembly. Each foot pad assembly is movable a limited amount in respect to the housing. Movement of the foot pad assemblies are in unison but in opposite directions. Movement transferring structure is located within the internal chamber of the housing which includes the use of an aligned series of balls so as to transfer the movement around the bends formed within the tubular housing. A manual actuator assembly is attached to the housing to pivot the entire housing from a stowed position to an extended position. A locking assembly is associated with the housing to fix in position the foot pad assemblies when located at a particular desired position.
