Someone else got the used one, but I saw the Handy Lift at my dealer and decided to order a new one. I am getting it with the side extensions so I can put the lawn tractor on for repair too. Going with the 1000 SAM unit.

You won't be sorry. Figure out who you are going to leave it to in your will. :D ;D

The last thing I wanted to do is worry about my bike on a poorly made lift. I was not going to skrimp on it. I figure I got a number of good years left in me to use it too. So don't be knocking on the local funeral home door asking about my Handy... :)

Last week the Handy Lift arrived. I got it installed on Friday. You guys were right on when you talked about the high quality of this lift. Talk about stability and smooth ride up and down. I also looked at this lift at my local dealer's shop. The table itself is 2ft. x 7ft. I added the side extensions so I could also use it for the lawn tractor, etc. The overall size of the table with the extensions is 4ft. x 7ft. which makes it a lot easier when putting a bike on and off having that extra width for your feet to move around. Plus, the added width is nice for holding tools,  parts, and your cold beer. ;) Thanks for the input guys. It was a wise purchase.

Great looking bike and the lift looks great!  BTW, your shop looks really clean and uncluttered.  Nice working conditions.
