Too old to crawl

[Bill Reber]

At one time in my life I enjoyed working on my bikes crawling around on the floor to change oil and filters or digging into the motor . Time moves on and I have pains in parts of my body that I did not know exsisted LOL. So now I look for ways that alow me to do the small things I enjoyed doing in the past , to that end I have now started to buy things that will make it easy on the old body like a oil extractor , roller chair and air tools. Now looking at lifts for a trike any sugestions would be helpful.
Thanks
Bill

One of my Friends here bought one of the cheap ($299.99) Motorcycle Lifts from Harbor Freight, and widened it with scrap metal to use for His Trike.....ThumbUp

Greg Smith Ecq. in Indianapolis has a great selection of inexpensive lifts. Look his co. up on the www. then give him a call, great guy.

I used these guys, lots of dealers around and very heavy duty lifts that won't fall on you, very sturdy, wide foot print. This is a video of the hydraulic model but I went with the air model... works identical. No more aches from crawling around and finding stuff to help me back up. Various colors and lots of accessories: http://www.klsupply.com/KLSOLUTIONS/TRIKESOLUTION.aspx

I hear you about crawling around on the hard cement.

Now that is a wonderful solution. Didn't have nerve enough to stick around long enough to see the price. :blush:

I didn't want to pay the price.
So I bought 2 of KLs jack lifts.
They work for me..............2 a degree.
The trikes only fallen off the lifts once.
Thankfully no harm done to the trike.
I cant say the same for my garage floor.
Nice 2 inch gouge in it from the frame end tips by the rear tire.
