Put it on the center stand next to something heavy and use a pull strap to to pull the rear down!

He didn't say. His number is 618-292-5409. He was at my dad's the other day riding the Caterpillar bike built by Orange Co Choppers. He has to take it to the Springfield mile for the car dealership that owns it now.
