I don't think it would. I can take a pic from the front of the bike to show what the distance is in the chock.

I have the one originally asked about mounted on my lift table, works great.
I also have the less expensive ones (in DZLDRs pictures) on my trailer. No problems with them either.

Thanks Dawg! Do you know if I'll be able to use the holes in the 1200lb lift for it or will I need to drill? I do have to modify the ramp because my wheeldock hits.

Thanks for the link Soos. That would work great installing your floorboard extensions.

I have the same on my trailer. Towed my bike to Northern Virginia, Western NC, and to Helen, GA with no problems. Makes loading a lot easier.

(and YES, I know bikes should not be towed, but rode.)

I had to drill holes in my 1000lb lift, they don't line up. Here's some pics of the wheel in the rail to see if it will clear. My rotor is 1/4" up higher than the bar and the rotor sits 1/2" away from the bar.

I got the same one and mounted it to the lift like yours it's way better then the one that comes with the lift. It works great you don't even have to strap the bike down . I do anyways so that I don't have to say I should have.,
The only thing is that you need two people to rock the bike out of the chock becuase the lift slides on the floor so someone has to hold the lift from slidding. I need to come up with away to keep the lift from slidding.

Default sliding

For those of you that don't have the chock mounted on a table or in a trailer, what are you doing to keep the chock from sliding? Mine tends to just slide across the garage floor when I try to ride the bike into it.

I used a couple Redhead concrete anchors. Bought the female ones that away when I remove the chock there are only two threaded inserts left in the floor.
