Not sure in UK, but this is a good one in the US.

Well, if you don't mind laying on the floor you can just get two sets of auto ramps and drive your trike up on them giving complete access to the underside of your bike.

If you need to work on the wheels and you don't have a Trike Jack Stand, then you can drive the trike up on the auto ramps and then use a floor jack to lift the wheel you want to work on off the auto ramp and put a frame jack on that part of the Trike that keeps the wheel up.

Last, if you want a really good shop work bench you can use what I use. My Tri Glide fit perfectly on it and it's rated at 1500#. Here's the link.

Thanks for your help guy's, Those are brilliant,

The J&S one is quite amazing on such a small footprint, I'll contact both companies to see if they have a European importer,

Cheers, Graham

Harbor Freight's lift is rated at 1000#, & is a motorcycle, not a trike lift. Too narrow. They work well though. I have one.
