whyfly My Ride Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) I have an ATV/Motorcycle lift. I only paid $35 for it though. I think Sears or Harbor Freight has one like it. I'm not having any luck with linking today. Network keeps going up and down at work. Edited March 29, 2010 by whyfly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoelH. Posted March 29, 2010 I've got a FMF one step lever stand that I love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unimog My Ride Posted March 30, 2010 How do you like it? To be exact I have this particular motorcycle lift. It was made by Speedway. I cannot complain, it was cheap, it lifts the bike, it's been working without any problems for 3 years (knock on wood). At the beginning I thought that the hydraulics will go bad in no time, but as the time passed I learned that I made a good purchase. I highly recommend, especially if you can find one for about $50. Can't beat that with the stick! 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jock Bradley Posted March 30, 2010 Sears has one on sale for $69. but it has a hand not a foot lever. There is one for $99.99 that looks just like yours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unimog My Ride Posted March 30, 2010 Sears has one on sale for $69. but it has a hand not a foot lever. There is one for $99.99 that looks just like yours. The one at sears also has a foot lever. Take closer look at the picture. $69 is not bad if you can pick it up (I'm assuming they don't do free shipping). The black pipe is for pulling the lift around.

skateman14 Posted March 30, 2010 It was 25 bucks, and from harbor freight.... and you were upset because it was a pos??🤣 i figured that was coming. i figured hey, there are only 3 moving parts on the thing, how bad could it be? you get what you pay for. i put it together, lifted my bike up to test it, then threw it in the trash. the whole top piece bent in half. ya get what ya pay for!!!👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jock Bradley Posted March 31, 2010 I decided to try this one. Was able to pick it today at the local Sears. If there is an issue with it - I can return it easily. No problem lifting one of my 450's and moving it around the garage. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00950190000P?keyword=motorcycle+lift Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine should be here tomorrow, let you guys know what I think. The stand had good reviews. I find the tusk products to be pretty darn good. 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZUKIfanOBX Posted April 8, 2010 got my tusk stand today. assembled it and removed the wheel at lunch to install the tire. then tonight while changing my flasher brackets i remembered i didnt tighten the top plate mounts on the stand. oooops. well its still standing upright so i'll wait to tighten them after the tire is replaced. stand was easy to assemble and works well. perfect height when adjusted all the way down. but it was poorly packaged and was damaged during shipment i assume. loose parts in the box tore the paint off the stand and the plastic plugs for the ends of the feet, well 3 of 4 were broken and not usable. doesnt matter to me but just thought i'd let yall know. i give it a 7 out of 10 for the price.
