Nevermind, .. Yes, I did it wrong, I'm officially a moron!

I took a piece of paper and taught myself the basic principles of a pulley system again. Comparing my scribbles with what I was doing, I slapped myself in the back of the head and managed to do it, rather easy.. with a piece of cord.

for future reference... *pull grey cord towards camera POV*



However, it's impossible to get the bike on it. My tenere was lowered (-4cm) by the previous owner and that's perfect for me. Especially for the novice that I am. But I didn't manage to get it on the center stand now. Raising the rear wheel a couple of centimeters made it better.

Is there a special "trick" to do it? I know it will be a bit more difficult due to the lower height, but I have seen it done before on a lowered bike
