Good Morning I have a question

#1 Unread post by Look Twice »

Just wanted to say hi. I'm a North MS rider. I have a V-Star and R1. I'm completely new to the forum scene. I'm wanting to buy a lift table and was sent in this direction to get good advice as I know NOTHING about them. I found a local dealer called Redline, then there is Harbour Freight and also Titan. from what I can tell most of them are similar. Some come with extensions, but I don't really think I need them although they look nice to have. Can anyone offer ANY help? I'm just trying to get a bunch of opinions before I spend my money. Thanks yall.

Dustin

Howdy Dustin and welcome to the forum. The only advise I have is you need floor space to have a lift, and most garages don't really have enough. I also think that Harbor Freight's stuff is low rent, I can't say that about Redline or Titan. Good luck.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Dustin,
I have a HF one and its ok for occasional use. I park a bike on it when down and room is scarce.
Otherwise I have never left it 'up' when not actually there working on a bike. I don't know how
they hold up for that.
