I have looked at the harbor frieght tables and for a smaller bike they would be ok but there is no way I would trust my RGU on one even with a better tire vise

I have both, use the table about 98% of the time, the bike is always parked on it, it is also stable, easy to work on both sides at one time, I mostly use the high lift for changeing tires and cleaning the rims and also be aware as UDAWG said let it down SLOOOWLY or your bike will be on the floor, or best to get help letting it down

1000 Lb. Capacity Motorcycle Lift Table
http://www.harborfreight.com/1000-lb...ift-68892.html

I am swaying towards the high position lift because I would not need an additional jack for wheel changes. I currently have a sears craftsman motorcycle jack and just want something to get the bike up higher for servicing.

Any feedback on one vs the other would be great!

Thanks,

Scott

Just got the 1000lb lift table a few weeks ago, love it, had a cupon for $299.00. The oly draw back is it is a foot crank table, not air, but what the hell, for $299.00 you cant go wrong. I say get the table.

I brought an online quote in from another vendor for the same lift, Harbor freight matched the price. Look for the coupon but, also check on line for other sellers of the exact same lift. HF is the biggest, best known, but they are not the only one who sells the Pittsburg Table lift (used to be Central Hydraulics who imported it when I bought mine) I got mine several years ago for $ 189.00 when my local HF matched an internet price for the exact same item.

Google Pittsburg 1000 lift or Central Hydraulics 1000 lift
