Just some advice to those who ventrue onto the lift table. It works great. Then HF wheel chock leaves alot to be desired -if- you have a 21" narrow front tire. Luckily I had a Bike Pro chock I bough some time ago, the kind that is removeable from the base. Bike pro is a bit narrower to begin with, plus they offer some adapters for the narrow 3 1/2" fronts. So I swapped it for the HF one using the base from the HF chock. Perfect.

I found it kind of freaky pulling up for the first time or two. But when its at full height its great.

Yep, cuda, great find, and a big thanks dude.

I wondered how that chock would work with a thinner front tire. It works fine with the wider bagger tires. Did you end up with plenty of room afterall, with the longer wheelbase?

I mounted the base for the chock with 3" hanging over the front. Makes the back of the rear tire just about even with the back of the platform, right on the access panel.

I would have just taken the chock back, but I can use the base, and for $25 I couldn't do it much cheaper and have it work as well.

Default Bike Stand

I lift my bike up with the yellow craftsman speed jack. Then once I get it to the desired height I then slide the stand I built under neither the bike then I lower the Jack and the bike comes to rest on the stand. The stand allows me to change all the fluids and tires. I have access to the entire the bike when it is on the stand. I would like to get a Handy lift at some point but for now I am happy with what I have.

Now all you need is a scissor jack, and you'll be good to go.

got it today. Now to figure how to make it adapt to my wide glide frame. It forced me to throw up a disconnect and a welder plug for my old Lincoln stick welder.

Is there an online code I can use for HF, to get the table lift for 279.00 still? Any help would be appreciated. If not, I'll keep my eyes peeled on hf.com
