yea I got one of those coupons too and have been on the fence

My main concern is the giant HD FLHTSHJESYT Land barge I also have

but if I had to use a standard ATV jack on that it wouldn't be the end of the world

My neighbor puts his HD fat, willy-bob, classic-glide, springer-rod special edition classic anniversary bagger on his with ZERO problems. You will wonder how you were even able to check tire pressures without it after awile!

Keep us posted how the XB geometry feels with the BPF setup.
Turbo?
Disregard last sentence; front wheel will only touch down occasionally.
BTW, what kind of wheel chock are you using on the HFT lift?

Thanks; I should have gotten one of those. I have one of these: http://www.harborfreight.com/Motorcycle-Wheel-Choc k-69026.html

But after buying the plywood to make it compatible with my truck bed, I should have gotten the one you're using. Time to clip some coupons.

Good luck with the rest of your project!

Don't worry about lifting a full size HD with the Harbor Frieght table, I've had mine since 05 and use it with the bikes and buggy's. The Polaris RZR is about a thousand pounds and my buds china buggy is about 1400. The table struggles to lift the 1400 pound buggy and seems that it is about maxed out at that point so not too many motorcycles will give it any trouble.

F22 : Do you use tie-downs to secure the bike or is the chock safe enough?

I have the HF lift and it is great for me and has made maintenance so much easier than bending over or kneeling on the floor. It is a heavy SOB though and was a chore to drag out of my minivan when I bought it, even in disassembled pieces. Have a buddy come over to help unload.

F22: I damn near spit coffee out my nose, thanks

Thank you for the input and sorry to High Jack the thread.

I have been on the fence for a WHILE between this one and a more expensive one and I think this conversation seals the deal on the HF one
