My new Dyna accessory

I've wanted one ever since I got my bike but never needed it till now. I used to use my dads lift but he moved to Florida with it. His was a Handy which was really nice, but this one isnt bad for the price! It was $625 Its a Direct Lift drop tail model

Sorry for the crappy pics...Iphone

Already started my first project! Gonna have Joe powder some stuff

Curious why you chose that particular table lift over the one at Harbor Freight for about half the price. I don't know anything about table lifts, so they all appear to be about the same to me.

That looks like a great lift and I understand the beauty of having the bike lifted and all, but don't you still have to jack the bike up to remove wheels, etc.? What's holding up the back end on your bike in the picture? I can't make it out.

The harbor freight lifts just seemed cheap to me. The direct lift seems very nice. Its not perfect by any means, but for the money IMO it is definatley worth it. IMO most harbor freight stuff is one time use stuff....or at least most of what I have bought there is. I got their shop press and its junk!

FYI I have a Sears Professional motorcycle jack for sale! $150 only used 8 times!
