Got the same one for the same price last time it went on sale.

Oddly enough, I haven't even opened the box!

Now if you had your bike up on the lift in front of your car you could easily roll the bike out into the clear without disturbing the car for Monday's balmy sunny , salt free roads ride.

I opened the box, and assembled mine, But, like you, that's about as far as I got too. Now that I put the bike away, the da*n lift is in the way too!
It is a good deal though ............ I guess if you use it. LOL

I've used mine only once. At only $65 its handy enough and cheap enough to have on hand for occasional use. I bought it with the intention of storing the bike on it for the winter but had second thoughts about leaving the shocks fully extended for such a long period of time. So now the bike sits on plywood with over inflated tires. Come on spring!

Nice lift. Looks like it would store under my work bench nicely. Maybe I'll have to write a letter to Santa. What the postal code? H0H 0H0?

Bought the same CrappyTire lift last year. Works great. As far as worry about extending the shocks up front, I simply lift the bike just enough to lighten the weight on the tires.
This lift also works well for the car (installing snow tires).

I've had my Suzuki on a jack for the winter for 5 years now. Never had any problems.

Also Honda adds a center stand to there GW making the rear shock fulling extented. I've read the owner manual and I can't find any where to not put it on the center stand for storage.
