Default Cyclelifter XL Motorcycle Lift

I found this on Facebook Marketplace. I've not heard of this before, but I find it interesting. I can't find anything about it with various Google searches. Tell me what you know, or if you have one does it work well for you? Electric (110V) over hydraulic & 95" tall. The ad claims it's a $6k lift, and the guy is asking $1950.

Haven't looked it up but one thing I'd want to know.
What requirement of the floor is needed to anchor that kind of lift

WP
@702
Is the top of it anchored to the wall somehow ??

I'd be curious as to why, after taking the trouble to install it, it is no longer wanted.

I'm not certain, but I don't think so. Here's the ad -

Searching the web, I'm having trouble finding any lifts like it. The only thing I've come across is this. https://www.advantagelifts.com/produ...ngle-post-lift

Looks like it requires 4" concrete minimum with a 3500lb mix requirement on the concrete.

I might think that the FB lift you're looking at might have stronger requirements due to the orientation of the lift and weight being further from the post.

I would guess that lift would need a lot more than 4" of concrete, that is going to be a hell of a rotational force at the base of the lift. In new construction we would provide a 12" haunch integral to the slab with a bunch of rebar. A top bracket back to the wall would help, if the wall can support the load.

That said, good looking piece of equipment.

You can get a motorcycle table lift for the price this person is asking.
