    Here's the Harbor Freight $59 lift. There is a handle for rolling the bike around the shop, but I removed it for photos. It's rated for 1500 lbs., but not good for sleeping on.

    I keep telling you: that one's $170 and the one I bought was $59 and is also rated at 1500 lbs. Why spend the extra $110 unless you need to get rid of some stale cash?

    Sure but trying to git somebody to spend the extra money is the problem.

    The first time I had to change a tire after I got my StreetGlide, all I had was a 2 ton floor jack to work with. I made a platform out of 2 X 6's to steady it on top of the jack. Bad idea. Wood split after rocking back and forth, and had to holler for my neighbor to come help me get it down.

    The Pitbull is a beauty and looks worth the money. But I already bought the $59 Harbor Freight model and is wonderful compared to what I had.

    Recommend you strap it down to keep from having the bike coming off.
