Motorcycle lift wide enough for Trike?

[motoadvrider]

I'm looking for a lift, either hydraulic or electric that my trike will fit on. The rear wheels are 58" from outside edge to outside edge and the widest lift I have found is 52". That leave 6" hanging over, 3 on each side. It is a Titan with an attachment for a trike.....only $450+ extra.
Suggestions?

I recently had some work done at an excellent ( 2 wheeler shop), but not lift equipped to work on trikes. They used (2) "regular" lifts set at 90 deg. to the bike with the front wheel on one and the rear wheels on the other. Locked in place, everything was safe. I realize this is not quite what your asking about, but if you already have one lift, a 2nd lift, used as described, may be a less expensive alternative. If I had I not seen it done this way, I probably would not have thought of it. Just an idea...

Hey Bob, I have a Ultra Classic/CSC that's 56 1/2 in. wide(outside tire bulge,tires footprint width is 55 in.) and I got a Atlas lift from Greg Smith. It has a 1500lb capacity. My trike tires extend over the sides a little but it works. If your trike has running boards make sure you don't have too steep a ramp. you may have to make an extension. Don't ask how I know. Here's a link to my lift. Atlas HI-RISE 1500 Motorcycle/ATV Lift Good Luck! Larry

Here is a lift that I have been looking at. Motorcycle Lifts | North American Auto Equipment

Thanks for the replies. Looks like the North American lift is what I need. It is 62 1/4 inches wide.....just right. Plus they have their main warehouse in Ft Worth so there would be no shipping.

Bob,
Let us know how you like it. I am thinking about the North American lift too.

I will post an evaluation of it when I get it, which looks like the end of January as we are preparing to move to East Texas.

I would feel better with 1500# capacity over the 1300#. I have an 05 Ultra with a Lehmam and the body weighs about twice as much as the Triglide, not sure of total weight, need to get it weighed.

I have the North American lift. I have had it for about a year and love it. I used it with a set of jack stands when I installed the T-Glide Stuff lift kit, and I use it when cleaning or polishing. No complaints at all, and North American was great to deal with.
