A bit of background. I don't weigh enough to get the 83 hawk on its center stand by pressing on the pedal part anymore, plus I now have a back injury which means no lifting weight or straining, So I've found a very easy way to get the bike up. I cut a long sloping wedge at one end of wood 14 inches long by 6 inch wide by 1 1/2 thick, put that behind the back wheel, then take a slight run at it to get up on the block of wood. Once up the center stand has only a short movement to go completely up which then lifts the back wheel off the block of wood.
