Lift jack or lift table
Looking to buy either the Pitbull Standard Airlift
http://stores.pitbullbikershop.com/-...ACK/Detail.bok
or a Direct Lift ProCycle Motorcycle lift
http://products.teamqat.com/Products...=45298&cat=7#0
Which would would go for? And why?
The lift is in Florence, SC so I should be able to avoid shipping charges. With shipping the Pitbull the price is pretty much equal. I like the idea of having a table, but can see where the jack would be handy as well. I do have my trusty Craftsman jack....
And for those who prefer the J&S, I decided to go with the Pitbull based strictly on lift height.

If I was choosing between the two that would be a no brainer, Id go with the table because there is only about a 50.00 difference. I personally wouldn't want a table taking up room in my garage. if you already have a craftsman why would you want to spend more money on a pitbull?

If your garage is like mine you don't have allot of room for a lift table.
The Pitbull jack gets great reviews and is stable.
The Pitbull will more versitile as well, like being able to position the bike once it's jacked up.
I've got a J&S jack which is similar and love it.
Takes up very little space in the garage and is stable enough to climb on the bike while jacked all the way up without being strapped down.

How much does your bike weigh? The table is rated for 1000lbs. I'm voting for the Pitbull. I have the J&S and love it. With a jack you can wheel it around the garage to face any way to work in the best light. I also like that the wheels are free to spin for maintenance or cleaning. Go with the Pitbull !

Currently I have a pitbull which is a great jack. Just bought a used Bestway lift from Harley Davidson of Glendale which I have to install I'm hoping the bestway is actually the "bestway"

Of the two choices I'd go with the Pit Bull. I'm not a great mechanic so I don't see the advantage of the table lift and it takes up a lot of room.
I have the J&S and love it. I can reach every part of the bike for maintenance and detailing. I can roll the bike anywhere I want and store it in the up position for the winter.
