Howdy yall, need some advice. Have a decent sized workshop for the type of stuff I do.(14ft 8in x 7ft 5in). However I've found my self in a pickle. I purchased a Baja warrior mb200 mini bike a couple months back for getting me to and from local fishing spots. Specifically ice fishing. And when I purchased the bike I told my self just keep it simple, stock.... well boys will be boys. I've gotten into motor modifications and body, lighting ect. My question for yall is, any one have a good idea for a bike stand that is size efficient and can be easily moved into and out of storage. I use my workshop daily so unfortunately I can't convert it over to mini bike garage soly. Lemme know what yall think. Picture related. My home main workshop.

Wouldn't a centre frame stand or fork end stands suit what you want?

Op here, yeah I was looking into that however I'd like to be able to get it up off the ground a ways so I can easily work on the motor and such. I've got bad knees, need surgery so squatting isn't really the easiest for me. I have a simple jack stand I was looking at dirt bike stands but the bike is roughly 145lbs and pretty low to the ground so either lifting the bike up that high would be slightly difficult or install a hoist. So I hope hoping something along the lines of a jack possibly a cissor lift essentially. I use a milk crate currently. I would also like to fund a way to keep it from moving around when I'm wrenching on it not sure if an abrasive material would be best for the bike frame to rest or on a way to clamp it down or simply the weight of the bike be enough. Any thoughts?

This is a more extravagant table but you can get some that are just like forks for the sub frame.
