That was what I thought.. I can use my motorcycle lift table to do the repair so I don't have to lay on the floor to do it..

That would make things a whole bunch easier I would think.

I used it to change the oil in the Honda.. Made it a lot easier than laying on the cement floor of the garage..

I think it would. Bikes are pretty close to the ground.

I have two types of lifts for my bikes... A table and one that picks them up from the side..

Ok. In my mind I was seeing one sort of like a table that lifts.

I got both of them from Harbor Freight.. The table is rated at 1000 lbs and the side lift at 1500 lbs..

That should be more than enough to handle a bike no?

Somehow I would have expected the Harley weighing more as it does.

I like the look better without those. Although I guess if you were to do a lot of highway travel they would be nice.
