Default New Lift

Thought I would share some pics of the new lift my dad picked up, my knees thank him. It's a Handy BOB 1500 with the trike wings, the lift was built for HD dealers to lift the Triglide. It's built like a brick sh*t house.

Excellent! I see it has metal casters in the front. Is it easy enough to roll around? Wish I had the space in my garage for that.

Ni....ce!! The only way to go. I'd say I'm jealous, but I'm not since I already have one. It also makes a great work bench, cause of the height adjustment.

GREAT idea. Never thought of using it as a work bench. The only problem is if I get it dirty M3 will get mad.

Grab his table cloth and through it over the top, that way he can't get you for getting it dirty. What works great is professional painters tarps, the heavy ones.

It will roll, but not real easy. They offer a little dolly for it that may make moving it around a little easier.

It does a heck of a job blowing snow, got a bit of a workout this winter. Between cleaing mine and my dads drive ways I went through close to 20 gallons of diesel.
