Norton Motorcycle Lift

I have a couple of those roll-in wheel chocks - in fact, they're still sitting in the back of my truck. They normally list for about $80 at Harbor Freight, but go on sale all the time for $43-$50. All the mags have HF coupons (Motorcyclist, Cycle World, Motorcycle Classics, Car and Driver, Popular Mechanics, etc.) and their 20% off coupon works on sale items, too, unless its one of those rare coupon-only sale items (can't combine coupons). Plan it right, you can get one of those chocks for under $40. Heavy, but work well.

My table was given to me by a mechanic friend when his shop got Handy lifts. Mine is an Aussie piece, called a Spirit. Uses air to drive a foot-actuated hydraulic pump. Thing weighs under 200 lbs, so I was able to throw it in my truck and bring it home unassisted. Also light enough to slide around the garage.



Kind of a crappy pic, but you get an idea of the lift. It was rusty, so I repainted it in Clark's Lotus color combo.

This is also how I roll the bike on when working on the front end - that way you can secure the rear wheel, then jack up the front.

If I planned to work on my motorcycles [in my shop not living room] more than just use em up I'd sure spend on these nice lifts but I'm an optimist against all odds. The IS tank is looked down on by the go fast styling crowd but I know in my case I must have something to keep from flings out of saddle so IS knee gripper tank is a key factor in spanking sports bikes and provides extra work surface and storage and rest area away form home. The branches that punched through roof would of knocked the new painted -unused IS tank on the cement if the two small boards stored in rather weren't knocked down to cross brace the limb from the tank, whew. Ugh usually for several winters there was always a bike hanging around, lucked out to have finished one up in time. Squatting is good for old mens old damaged knees but I don't straighten up to hunt tools or parts as low back barks at me to do so until ready to walk away.

hi, about the lift. do you still have it? if yes how much.
waiting for your answer, thanks
