Look at what most Harley dealers use. Get American made with an exceptional reputation and pay once/cry once. The Handy S.A.M 1200 is the industry standard for a reason.
This is the most thorough motorcycle lift table video I've seen, they are probably expensive though so out of my range but at least your getting the truth about them I have a bike that may be almost to big for the cheap table I have but I have no other choice because of my being on disability so I'm just going to have to be careful but I do realize the reality when I see and hear it, great video just don't show it with your mother in law in the same room" LOL".
Def go with the foot pump, I remember servicing my bike in the middle of a hurricane, we lost power for 10 hours my bike was just stuck on the lift, miserable experience!
Thanks. I'm glad to see people appreciate all the hard work it took to uncrate all these tables, erect them, video them, develop the video, disassemble them, and finally recrate them.
I’d like to know more about sinking it into the floor. Can you also run a pipe under the concrete to the wall to keep the hose/wires out of the way? What dimensions should the sunken area be, etc?
These other videos may help. See below. I could not advise on the size of the recess needed in the concrete until I knew what lift you decided to recess. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6-R6tM6wtSI.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vC14eaqBg-w.html
You'll have to see our website for pricing sir. We don't mention pricing in our videos because prices are sure to rise over time. As soon as it goes up, the video will be giving bad info and customers will be upset about it and start to demand the old price. We learned this lesson the hard way a long time ago. Thank you anyway for the suggestion.
Tipping over sideways isn't really an issue. What you have to watch out for is putting a short and heavy motorcycle, such as a Goldwing, onto a table that has a front extension panel installed. Front extensions are really only for lifting choppers. If you use a front extension, then you can put far too much weight toward the front of the table and it can tip over forward. It's important to pay attention and make sure you don't do that.
A Goldwing is a big girl. I recommend the 1500HD to guys with bikes that large. www.redlinestands.com/catalog/lifts-c-290/motorcycle-atv-lifts-c-290_110/lifting-tables-c-290_110_111/redline-1500hd-motorcycle-atv-lift-table-p-3143
