At that pricepoint, you're getting close to the range of the large table hydrolic lifts.. I feel quite a bit more secure with those.

Newbie to the forum, Guys, but I also spent quite some time trying different lifts for my new Black Deluxe.

I tried the ATV/Motorcycle lift from Northern Tools @ $69, too high for the low stance of the Deluxe.

Also tried the Craftsman red and black ATV/Motorcycle lift from Sears @ $69.99 this week. Ditto on the height issue.

Then went back to Sears and got the all aluminum, silver and yellow ATV/Motorcycle lift @ $169.99.

The minimum height is 3 1/2" and raises all the way to 19" (skeptical about this spec at first, but true)

The jack is about 40 lbs and a breeze to use. The thing I liked about it the most is that it does not stick out too much
when I'm tooling my scoot. That alone was a great incentive for my shins.

Good luck and hope this was helpful.....

Keep the shiny side up!!!

Same lift I use.
I did have to replace it. A friend brought over his kid who I'm certain broke the 1st one by continuing to loosen the handle.. I think it just unscrewed something.. wouldn't lift and spewed hydraulic fluid.. I couldn't get to the mechanism to fix it.. The design has the unit very enclosed without some difficult dissassembly.. So I got a replacement ok but haven't used the new one yet.. but when I did use the first one prior to the kid breaking the stupid thing, it worked fabulous... Very stable. Worth the $169 I say. Too bad it's made in P.R.C. Well, otherwise it would cost four times the price.

Oh.. Welcome to the forum also.

I purchased a motorcycle lift at Lowe's about 12 months ago and it works great on my Electra Glide. I think it has a 1200 or 1500 pound lift rating and lifts 16" or so. I paid $89 for mine, but have seen them on sale at Lowe's for as little as $69.

It has the rubber covered channels that cover its lift arms; the one on the left goes in the channel on the rear of the bike when the lift is positioned under the bike.

I've got the higher priced Sears jack. Works great! And they had it in stock.

Just bought the Sears aluminum model for $149. Light weight and tough. Goes down to 3.5" so slides right under wifes lowered Fatboy. Works great on my Deuce too. A good buy.
