Hey guys just wanted to do a review on the pittsburg which you already know atv motorcycle
lift.
I bought this a few months back and I got to tell ya I like it I like it a lot.
Its sold by Harbor Freight they have them, they usually go for about 150 on sale.
I think I paid 140 something with a coupon. and I am very pleased with it.
It's got a feature or two that I really like.
Comes with these adapters that go on top, they actually ad two inches of height if you
need the bike to be a little bit higher.
So this is a nice feature.
It just falls right in place, got the dowels that hold it, the bike sits on there give
it two more inches of height.
The jack itself is all aluminum construction that I can see.
Even the handle, the handle is really nice turn it to the right it actually locks it
so you can pump the piston up.
Then you turn it to the left, it releases it.
Now the more you turn it the faster it will go.
It's not a fast action pump but its rated for 1500 lbs.
I put my Harley Ultra Classic on here which weighs about 800 and change.
It picks it up, it's not fast takes quite a few pumps but you'll get it up there.Now
let's say you got the bike on there and this is in the way?
It's got a nice little feature, you just turn this little screw and the handle comes right
out.
Set it aside, put it on the bench and it's not in your way when working on the bike.
When your ready to drop the bike down put it back in make sure it fall into place and
you just tighten that screw back up and that's it, it is in.
There is a nice little safety feature on this that I like.
Comes with this pin, when your working on the bike you slide it through the holes right
here and then you would lower the lift onto that pin.
You don't have to worry about the cylinder holding all the weight while your working
on the bike.
The only thing I don't like about the lift is when the bike is sitting on here and your
working on the bike, the bike will have a tendency to move back and forth a few inches
or a little bit.
Reason being is the lift got some play in it.
You might think at first when you start using it, it is not safe, but the stance is pretty
wide on this so it does hold the bike on there pretty good.
I mean I've torqued bolts down, I put pressure on the bike, changed tires and its never you
know its never given me any concern to where or an inclination to where its going to fall
off the stand.
This jack is really great, I am really impressed with it.
The money I've spent on this jack verses some of the other brands that are out there- worth
every penny.
The front wheels are some type of a hardened plastic and the back wheels are aluminum.
So overall Its a thumbs up on the motorcycle lift by Pittsburgh.
And then when your ready to drop the bike just pick it back up, pull the pin.
Now the pin has two clips on each side so it doesn't fall out and it keeps it in place.
And then like I said you turn the handle to the left and the bike will slowly come down.
Now if you turn the handle more it will come down faster and it will keep going.
It's just like any other jack, the more you turn the release screw the faster it is going
to drain.
So thank you for watching the review of the Pittsburgh ATV motorcycle lift 1500 lb capacity.
This is not a paid review, I am just a customer who bought the lift and I actually like it.
I think it's money well spent, especially when you working on the bikes and your older
like me, you got a bad back, you can't be working on them on the ground anymore.
You know you got to jack them up, use a little stool, garage stool and you can work on the
bikes without having to hurt your back further.
All right guys have a great day, like the review leave a comment or like it or even
