Pittbull Lifts
I did a search but could't find any comments on the Pittbull motorcycle lift. Looking at their video the lift looks rock solid with an Ultra on it. I like the height of 21" lift, and the optional 360 turn table
Does anybody have one of these and what are your comments.
Thanks HiTech
2009 Ultra ..Black Pearl
2003 RK Classic.. Black
2005 VRSC.. Black Cherry Pearl

Snap on lift is what I have. it lifts up to 48" and doesnt require air as it is hydraulic. They are very pricey though. Snap on sug retail price is $4500. Matco sell exact same lift for $3300. They are both made by aamco and you can get the exact same lift without the snap on sticker for I think $2200 from etoolcart.com

I have the Pit Bull. Excellent and worth the price! US construction, largest wheels and best height. Totally solid and easy to operate solo.

I have been in the process of choosing a quaility jack. I had emailed Pitbull and this is the response I got back from the owner. I was impressed that Heika was more interested in promoting the attributes of the Pitbull, rather than slamming the competition. The result is that I paid for a new Pitbull yesterday and had a shipping confirmation within an hour. Here is Heika's response.
Mr. Clint,
Thank you for your email. I would like to give you a little more information on our company and lifts. We are a family owned and operated business that has been manufacturing lifts for 20 years. We manufacture nothing but Pitbull Motorcycle Lifts and are the forerunners in the business. We lifetime warranty all our work and you get the best lift on the market. Our lifts raise the bike 25 inches (which is the tallest lift of its style) and to give you an example of how stable the bike is without any tie downs, I could climb up and sit on the bike and I weigh over 200 lbs. We do however have "D" Rings located in each corner on the lift giving you convenient tie off points. Some other things that separates us from other lifts:
1) Pitbull is the only lift on the market that is grease fitted anywhere a bolt goes through the steel tubing. Most other lifts are lucky to even have greasable wheels much less pivot points. The reason we grease ours is simple, we lifetime warranty the product and don't want to have to worry about that, and in 18 years we have never had a bolt break or a pivot point wear out, no other lift company can say that.
2) We use the heaviest, largest casters of all lifts, makes it extremely easy to roll the lift with your bike on it. Most lifts use very small diameter, narrow wheels that just don't roll with the weight of a bike on them.
3) We use a 6 ton cylinder on our manual units, most others use a 4 ton or smaller.
4) Our lifts come with a free pull handle to make it even easier to position the lift. A lot of other lifts you buy this separate if they even have it.
5) Our lifts are by far the most stable lifts of this type on the market and have been rated #1 by several national publications and has never been beat out by any other lift company in these shootouts.
Now, I would like to answer your question.
1) Does Pitbull use imported bottle jacks for their system or are they American made?
A) The jacks we use on our lifts are purchased from and assembled by a company in Kansas City, MO. But some of the parts do come from outside the USA. Upon constant searching, we have found it impossible to find a jack company that not only assembles the jacks in the US, but also gets all of the necessary components here in the USA as well.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us again. We are here to help in any way we can. Thank you again and we look forward to hearing from you soon. Have a great weekend!!
Sincerely,
