i've just moved to a new house with a garage and a covered walkway alongside. i'd like to keep the garage clear, so wanted to store the motorbike in the covered pathway alongside it. the only snag is that the path is about a foot up from the access road. ive been looking online, and the only real ramps i can see are designed for loading bikes into vans, these are about 2m long, which seems excessive for a 30cm drop. i was thinking of buying a cheap one and cutting it down, is there a better solution? i commute 2-3 times a week, and cant leave the ramp in situ so it needs to be a temporary solution.

thanks for all the replies. the bike in question is a t reg zx6r, so nothing fancy. i didnt think of a scaffold board, good shout. i think that with a block of something underneath about half way along to stop it sagging will probably be the best/cheapest option.

cheers all
