Default Motorcycle Lift

I’ve been researching and shopping for a full size motorcycle table lift. Currently looking at Weaver’s W-1500 but I’m not ready to drop any coin until I’ve done all my homework.

I would appreciate any Brand recommendations or lessons learned.

Sorry to hijack, but Olongapo is one great town!!!

Spent many a nights, and days there during my time in the Navy. I feel sorry for all the new Squids who will never experience such a wonderful place!!!

Good luck on finding the correct lift.

Never heard of a Weavers but I use a Direct Lift table. Very heavy duty and never had a problem out of it. Dealers located all across the U.S. so they are fairly easy to pick one up instead of having to pay shipping. At 595.00 they are fairly inexpensive for a heavy duty lift.

Another +1 for the direct lift. Works great, HEAVY DUTY.

I am looking at the W-1500 from Derek Weaver too. I sent them an email to find out if it has the swivel casters like the Titan does. It looks like the same unit only in black.

I'm living on the edge with a Harbor Freight full size cheapie. I got it from a Harley independent shop closing down and the seller said he had Ultras on it. It holds my '76 Goldwing Bobber and my Zook motard, but I don't trust it with the Harley. No regrets as the Harley doesn't want to be on it like the others, anyway. 8)
