Have you never heard of pulleys and block and tackle ?

Er yes, but I've never met anyone mad enough to hoist a heavy motorcycle
up
like that. A pedal bike, yes, but not a motorbike. No hang on, that's not
quite true, I *DO* know people who are mad enough to do that, but they
just
don't happen to own motorcycles!

You know another now.
