My New Lift

I opted not to get the drop tail. So I bought the support bridge lift to put under the bike to lift up the rear in case I wanted to remove the wheel. Saved $50.00 there.

Yes I can. You just have to make sure the pedal is in the middle. The locking bridge also holds it in place, should you loose air all together.

Both items $644.49 with tax

RE: My New Lift

Anyone ever use the comparable Harbor Freight bike lift (1,000 lb air hydraulic motorcycle lift)? Naturally it's made in C***a -- sorry, it's a bad word, so I couldn't spell it out.

I bought this Tec-lift from Tool a & Equipment Connection in Atleboro Ma. We've been using it for two years with no problems. Was 650.00 in 2005 w/drop out rear and jack.
