I'm thinking one of each.

I like a table myself, but I also like the removable section for taking off the rear wheel. I had a Handy and sold it when I tought I was finished riding. Now I'm looking again. I have a cheap jack for raising it high enough for cleaning the wheels. Have you seen this one link below. It's the same design and color my Handy was, but it problay stops there. I'll have to drive down there and check it out tough.

I have the J&S and would love to have a Handy lift as well, but if it has to be one of the two in your short list, i would have to go with the pitbull, since it's made in the USA.

I have the yellow Craftsman jack and it does everything I need. I would go for the table since you already have a jack. I can see the room it takes up being a concern though, my shop is an old warehouse so space is the one thing I have plenty of.

Currently have both a lift (J&S) and the Direct lift table. Still use both, each for a different types of work. Use the lift table for most of the maintenance and repair work. The J & S is now used mostly for cleaning the bike in the driveway.

No way would I spend that much on a jack lift. I bought one of these http://www.discountramps.com/motorcycle-jack.htm
several years ago and, it has been great. I only use it usually when I clean my bike so I can turn the wheels but, it depends on what I'm doing to the bike. I also have a lift table when I need to get things up higher.

I have a Direct Lift table lift and it works great. Good work height and makes working on the bike a lot easier.
