Default New bike lift, finally!

After all these years of wrenching on bikes on the floor, I finally stepped up and bought a lift! Super excited, had to share!

Nice! My fatboy has been off the ground for a couple weeks with the inner primary off. It makes things so convenient.

You must live on the west edge of the planet...your photos are all sideways relative to me.

The lift is a CEM, the company is based in Idaho although the lift is made in China. Didn't realize that until after I picked it up, but I got a good deal on it and it works great!

Sorry about the sideways photo, not sure how to correct that !?!?

No worries. I just noticed your signature photo was oriented the same way. Are you uploading directly from your phone/PC/mac? Does it look normal on those?

On my IPad (which is what I uploaded from) all is normal.

Hm all I can think of is if you have rotation "unlocked" do the photos still show the ideal orientation? Somehow the photo info isn't getting to the site. Anywho, enjoy the lift!

I'm still looking for a good reason for me to get a lift.
Harbor Freight has what some say is an "OK" lift on sale for less than $300.
If I was to get one that would probably be the one.

I certainly would like a lift, I just don't know if giving up the floor space is worth it to me.
That being said if I had some serious wrenching to do, getting a lift would be a no-brainer.

Attached is the coupon if anyone needs it.
