+1 We have the BOB 1500 with Handy's trike adapter, the same lift they developed for Harley dealers when the Triglide come out. We saw the 1st one when my dad got his Triglide in 08. The dealer said HD wouldn't let them have any TG's until they bought a lift designed for them. We liked it enough we sold the 1,000lb rated lift we had and bought the BOB 1500, it's built like a brick **** house.

Thanks for the info Butch. All I saw in that picture was Handy on the lift.

Does anyone have any experience with the Titan 1500 that J&P Cycles sells?

http://www.jpcycles.com/product/920-496

It looks like a very stout lift, can use air or foot power for motive force. It just looks like a slick rig... IF it will hold a Tri Glide!

While that lift is rated at 1500#, it is only 30 inches wide. Unless it comes with a modification kit to make it wider a TG won't fit on it.

Been using the Titan 1500 XLT for 2 years now. Good lift! Might get a better deal from their direct dealers locally. Check the website for dealers. Comes with all the extras ,side extensions,front extensions, wheel clamp etc. Rated for 1500 lbs. and pretty versatile.
