Question Straps to use wtih Haydraulic Platform lift

As this forum has never failed to direct me to the best products and prices...i have selected the lift i like, but believe it or not they dont sell the straps to strap it down from the bars. Looking for the best quality ones out there of course at a sharp price. Thanks for any info. Ted

You can get a decent set at a nice price from the local Wal-Mart. Just get a set that's rated for well over the weight of the bike and you'll be safe.
I also have a set of loop straps rated for some 4,000lbs. to use on the bikes painted or chrome bits. Reserve the steel hooks for the platform. No one is going to care if it gets scratched a little from them.

i order to compress & hold down the 220 lbs it takes to compress the forks on your bike

you will need straps that can cold 2000 lbs ( 6xthe amount of force X bike weight)

sorry citoriplus but wall mart is evil...

Evil or not, the straps I got from them are one hell of a lot better/safer than the junk that came with my Sears jack.
They also work nicely for straping down loads in my pickup.
