    Sears Motorcycle lift

    Well I bought the lift and I must say am quite pleased for the 59.00. I do see where people were concerned about the pipes but really even if I had them on I dont think it would hurt them. The bike is in the basement (nightmare getting it in) sitting on the lift and ready for makeover. will start a thread on the progress.

        had to go through a bulk head (very steep) and the very bottom of steps is a heating unit. one slip bam. used ramps and a come a long with safety ropes tied to trees just in case. lowered it a few inches at a time. went very smooth. If it did not get in the basement it would of sat all winter again with no work to it. will take pics of the obstacles to get it in there.

                you might want to put wood on the frame rails so you don't put pressure on the engine. I had to on mine because it was pushing up on part of the engine. Maybe you don't need it though.

                  Wow $59 ain't bad at all. I think I may have to invest in that. Congrats on getting it down into the basement. Mine was kicking my ass getting it back to the backyard because of the small walk ways and plants everywhere
