I opened the box thinking "piece of cake", glanced at the instruction & got to work. I was thinking to myself that you don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure this one out, so I started assembly. Not paying attention to the instructions the first thing I did was mount the wheels on the wrong way, and I snugged them up pretty good. Doh! When trying to take them off there was just one that the nut was just locked on and would not come off, even with my impact gun. I ended up drilling it out and buying a replacement bolt and it was good to go. I tell you this so that you will not make the same mistake. My bad, not the product.I had originally bought the lesser expensive Harbor Freight model which worked but was too thin for my rear tire, was difficult to roll, and I almost dropped my bike twice when driving on. Don't waist your money on the cheap on unless you have a smaller bike, I think it would be fine for skinny tires and a lighter bike. Mine is a Harley Ultra Limited so it's big and heavy.This dolly is solid, easy to ride onto with the lower stance and wider track. The wheel locks are so much easier than those locks on cheap dolly. It rolls very easily and smooth as long as you're rolling in a planned and smooth direction. It does take a little umph of you decide to change course and the caster need to pivot a lot.Definitely a thumbs up. Definitely worth the higher price. Definitely would recommend.

The dolly arrived on time and well packaged with easy to follow directions. Assembly time was roughly an hour. I purchased a Harbor Freight dolly for my smaller/lighter cruiser and there was vast improvement in quality and easy of movement with the Black Widow. Once assembled, there is a bit of a learning curve when mounting my nearly 800 lb 2018 Goldwing with limited visibility of the front tire. I am only 5'8" and don't have room to spare when standing over the bike, but was still able to drive the bike onto the dolly without an aid/assistance. When the front tire rolls onto the rear of the dolly, the front briefly comes off the ground, but quickly plants once your front wheel clears the first set of rollers. I would not describe rolling the dolly around as EASY, but light years easier than rolling this monster back and forth into a tight spot without the dolly. The major life improvement with the dolly is 2 fold: 1) I can roll straight into the garage and onto the dolly (as opposed to trying to do a tight U-turn and back in) and 2) once mounted on the dolly, I am able to spin/roll the bike anywhere I want in my shop and then lock the wheels in place. I would definitely buy it again. I have not used/seen one in person, but I feel the closest competition would be a Condor.Pros: Sturdy/well built, lightweight, large caster wheelsCons: Pricey, some labor of assembly, learning curve at first with mounting the bike.

I purchased a Harbor Freight dolly for my softail. It serves it purpose but would obviously not work for my Ultra. After some research I decided on the Black Widow Pro Dolly. It moves around much easier than it’s cheap counter part and is much sturdier built. The instructions are not very good, the company apparently made a design change and eliminated some hardware ( which I think was a good idea ) but didn’t clarify it in the instruction sheet. Didn’t take much to figure it out though so no big deal. My biggest disappointment is that I thought I was purchasing an American Made product , box says made in China and instructions are from Discount Ramps Company. I was trying to buy small business but was fooled. Makes my decision on a lift table a bit harder now, was going to go with Black Widow, if it’s made in China as well I’ll definitely look elsewhere.

I had been looking online forever for a dolly and finally found one that was cheaper and from a different manufacturer online. Proof that you get what you pay for, I found it flimsy, and would droop in the middle due to the weight. Also hard to roll because of the small hard plastic caster wheels. I ended up returning it and found the Black Widow. One work - AWESOME! Does the job of carrying the weight of a fully loaded 2019 Harley Davidson Ultra Limited touring motorcycle easily and effortlessly. The large hard rubber wheels make is easy to roll the bike in and around tighter areas and the design of the aluminum bed is bend-resistant even with this 950 lb. bike on it. Lightweight and durable, easy roll on and roll off. I can't say enough good things about this product. After seeing cheaper, poorly made dollies out there, don't waste your time. You won't be disappointed with this one!- Jack Davidson, Ontario Canada

Works and rolls with ease. Does exactly what I wanted it to do in a small, tight space in my garage. The down side was it came with one caster not bored out to the size of the rest of the casters and bolts that fit. Vendor had no spare parts. Suggested I dismantle and ship the whole thing back howevver were out of stock to supply a new one. I located a vendor who had the same caster for sale for $12.00 USD and suggested the buy one and express ship to me. No can do they said. Found a smaller bolt and lock nut to work. Very disappointed in vendor, their attitude and not willing to source another caster.

What I LOVE about this product:*Beefy aluminum construction*Ease of assembly*Easy to push the bike once it is mounted on the dolly*Easy Drive-on : Drive-off design (many other dolly's require you to back off)I have searched for months to find a motorcycle dolly that would allow me to maneuver my Harley-Davidson softail into the back of my tiny garage, allowing me to park both the H-D and my FJ Cruiser in the garage AND still have room for my trash/recycle cans in the back. I could not find a single product that seemed highly recommended. You can certainly save some $$ by purchasing the motorcycle dollys that are most prominent online. Those typically feature small double-casters along some kind of a light steel frame. That might be fine if you have a small dirt-bike, but if you're on any decent-sized cruiser - the BLACK WIDOW is definitely the way to go. The BLACK WIDOW is all-aluminum construction with a single large plank that everything ties to. Check out the beefy aluminum arms that attach to the castors. CHECK OUT the 4" castors! Beefy and utilize bearings. Took me about 20 minutes to assemble. Other people might go faster. I am extremely satisfied with this product -- and I am glad to be able to keep both my vehicles stored in this tiny garage. My wife said my H-D would "never fit" with my FJ-Cruiser in our little garage... and look what just happened?!! Ha.
