Default Storage solution for small garage

Anyone seen this before, I sure haven't. Looks nice and to me, not a bad price. Would be nervous the first few times raising the bike though.

I would be curious to read about wall structure requirements. I would be leery to mount it to 2x4 wall 24" on center. Interesting though.

My buddy built something similar to hold 2 quads. He built a platform and detachable ramps. Pulled them up with a Harbor Freight winch. He could then drive his cars under it. Pretty cool idea.

good point bent, not sure how they over come that issue. It would suck to come home and not only see your bike on it's side but still attached to part of the house. Uh Oh

Nope, I would pass on one of those. Cheaper to build a shed and then not have to worry about having your Harley as a hood ornament.

Plus, how would you explain all of that to your insurance agent? "I came home and my Harley was parked on the hood of my car".

If I were to invest in that, the only way I could sleep at night would to build support legs underneath it while it is raised up. wide enough to still get the car in. Maybe a 2x8 across with 4x4 posts. Then I could get some rest.

as for me, my garage, which everyone says is big, is not for my cars. cars are parked outside.
