    Default Harbor Freight Motorcycle Lift

    I am selling my HF motorcycle lift. I used it with my RT's for oil changes and other mods, but I have a Ryker now and use a different lift system. This can be had for $70 plus tax with a 20% off coupon at HF. I am selling for $40, but will not ship unless you pay the charges due to weight and size. Much better for a local pickup in Muncie, Indiana if someone is close enough to want it. Thanks!

    One hour of labor at a dealer is $100-$160. This will pay for itself and much more when you use it for one oil change or mod. I also used it to lift the Spyder up a bit when washing the brake dust off of the wheels so they could freely spin. It fit under my RT's without having to put the Spyder on boards first.

    What are you using for your Ryker?

    I have a single point lift with ramps and jack stands as needed. Gives me more access to the underneath side and allows me to adjust the shocks easier when the weight is off the wheels. Quick and easy.

    You mean like a hydraulic jack lift sort of thing?

    Yes. Another HF product. Just a couple of pumps at any of the lifting points and it's in the air as needed.

    Just noticed this is a for sale thread, not a discussion about jack options.

    So, like ... how do you delete a post? <G>

    Have you tried listing it on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace? For local sale those will probably get you better results than here.

    No, not yet. Just threw it onto this forum on a whim. I know there are more options. Thanks for the suggestions.

    Just thought I would cycle this thru the forum again to see if there is any interest within the east central Indiana area for this lift. You really can't beat it for lifting your Spyder. It will more than pay for itself after one oil change or any other farkling requiring the bike to be lifted. Thanks for looking!

    Not really. Wish it did. I have a Ryker and I use a single point jack and jack stands. Thanks for asking.

    This jack from HF works fine with the RT. You have to put a 2x6 on the floor drive onto the 2x6 then slide jack under bike. I still either use jack stands or plastic ramps under the wheels when up.

    I did not need to drive mine onto a 2x6 first. The jack just cleared the underside of the bike without a problem. If working under the bike, I still used jack stands after raising the bike up for a more secure setup.

    Pump a little air into the rear air bag and it'll raise the bike enough to slide the jack under. That's what I do.
