|  Bike Lift under non-frame parts of bike
I haven't found any discussion on using a bike lift when there isn't good access to the frame under the bike. I was considering one that is on sale for $51 at the local Harbor Freight store. It's the typical cheap kind that you roll under the bike from the side and it has two pads that lift the frame as you pump the cylinder. After looking at my bike (Suzuki S83) and my wife's bike (Kawasaki Vulcan 500), I'm not sure about using these. It looks like the frame isn't the lowest part of the bike. Part of the motor sticks below the frame, as does part of the exhaust system. Has anyone else come across this problem? What did you do about it? Thanks, Dave |
