I am looking for a table lift jack system that will fit the Spyder RSS.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Have you considered making one? Think it could be done pretty easy....some 3/4" or 1" plywood, bunch of 2 by's some 1" pipe and a floor jack.

Lift
You may want to check out lifts by Pit Bull and J&S Jacks. A bit pricey, but they look like they are well made.

I mis-spoke....it appears H/F does still sell a lift table.. http://www.harborfreight.com/1000-lb-capacity-motorcycle-lift-68892.html
It's a hydraulic foot pump and not the air powered model but I had one of these before and they work fine....problem with useing them for a Spyder is they aren't wide enough, and the extension wings only fit the air powered model.
The issue I see with the one mentioned in the previous post is the Spyder is very nose heavy, that could be a problem for that lift....great price tho! :thumbup:

Spyder Lift
Made this from m/c ramps. I can use my roller seat to work on my RT. Note: Center ramp is beefed up with 1 1/2" angle iron.

I order my Lift from Derek Weaver and is being delivered on Monday. Has all the options included. Also free shipping special.

Will need to add pipe extension as disucssed by SpydherLov's video. Also like his removable ride on Condor mount.

Lifting the Spyder RS
The 1500 lb MC/ATV lift mentioned is available from Harbor Freight with a coupon for $62 + right now. The same lift, essentially, is available from Sears, Northern Tool, Auto Zone and Advance Auto Parts for around $100 to $120. The trick to using the lift is to locate the balance point. My RS/GS SE5 balances with the rear pad just forward of where the frame bends upward. Since I added my diamond plate floor boards the balance point may have moved forward. Harbor Freight does have a lift table, but you would need to devise an outrigger system to accomodate the Spyder, not sure what the price is on that. Of course, unless you hit the Lotto, money is always a consideration. My dealer was complaining about the cost of a lift for the Spyder the last time I was in. Working on the floor is very tiring.
