Harbor Freight is selling a 1500 lb Bike Lift. Normally $119.95, but I have a coupon for $74.95.

I am going to go take a look at it to make sure it is steel construction, but I was curious if anyone else with a bagger uses this lift?

The Sears lift is $101, so I do not want to save $26 and buy the wrong lift...

Comments?

 

I have the harbor freight lift and hand used it for a couple of years. I recently used it for my ultra during the handle bar swap with no problems

 

I have one..Good lift, It's a gray one.

 

There's a lot of folks who won't use anything but a $500 jack, but the Harbor Freight jack is all I've ever used and it works fine for me. No issues ever. There's about a million threads on this subject. Btw, the word "lift" usually denotes a lift table, not a jack.

 

Oil and jack threads. Ya gotta love 'em.

 

Like you, I went to our local HF store to look over and test both of their m/c jacks for quality, stability and functionality. Not going to tell anyone how to spend their well-earned money, especially these days, but my bike sits on a J&S jack. Wasn't impressed with HF at all...JMO and you could see things different. Not trying to start another "jack war" here, just voicing my input.

 

I have the yellow steel jack, which works fine.

I did a survey on here looking at mishaps. There were no reported incidences of jack failure but numerous examples of operator error. Virtually all mishaps flowed from faulty tie-down practices.

 

I use one it works fine...do a search on here and you will find hundreds of threads about this lift and others that will help you in making an informed decision.

 

Thanks for all the help guys...... Appreciate it....

 

What kind of oil do you use in YOUR jack???
