I've had one for a few years. I'm less than happy with it. Ended up bolting it to the floor, as it seemed too unstable. Also it bleeds down after a day so use the lock bar. Changed the vise out for the HF Condor style chock. I don't plan on replacing the table but wish I had bought a better one to begin with.

here is what I did to my Harbor freight table lift.
THROW that POS front wheel vise away! get you a wheel chock and bolt it to the table top, then you can ride your bike (or push it) up on the table, into the chock, then just step off with no worries of it tipping over! Plenty of clearance for bagger fenders as well.
note: tie down straps should be used whenever rear tire is removed

I have the older version of this table. It does not have the drop-out for the rear tire. Otherwise it is the same. It is not the most stable thing but if there is two of you, you can load anything on it. I have used it quite a bit. Bought it used for $200. Still got the crappy chock on it, but, I always strap it down.

Harbor Freight Wheel Chock...........
I ordered a wheel chock from HB and it arrived today. If you look at the picture below you'll see that the chock appears to just be sitting on a driveway and isn't fastened or bolted down. But, when I read the assembly instructions they said it has to be bolted down to asphalt or a trailer bed.
My question: do any of you guys use this chock? If so, have any of you used it without bolting it down? I was hoping to just use it for oil changes and for winter storage to keep the bike upright to take up less space in the garage. Btw, I have a 2002 Fatboy. Don't mean to hijack the thread.......just thought this topic was similar. Thanks!
