Harborfreight

I do. I have use it for about 20 tires now. The only thing I will suggest is get the Mojo Bar or the No-Mar bar to use with it, and tape or use inner tube pieces on the rim grabbers for the best results.
 
i just bought the chain breaker from them for 9 bucks will be testing it out once i get the chain and sprockets here in couple weeks.
 
ive got the table lift foot operated and love it

I have changed 6 tires with my Tire Changer and the best advice I have would be better tools working with the tire. At this point, I can pay my local dealer 30 bucks to mount and balance a tire if I bring them the new tire and a rim. I think I'll stick with that for now. The tire changer from Harbor Freight pays for its self in 3 tires so I chalk it up as a lesson learned.

I have a tire balance tool as welll. It is manual, with roller stick on weights where called for.... it all works well, but is a very manual process to change a high profile tire. 180 or better is a bear. Front tires ie. a 120 is not a problem.
 
I will get a tire changer from there. I purchased alot of stuff there. Impact guns, air rachets, hydraulic jacks, air nailer, die grinder, digital orbital buffer, Rambo Knife, machete :laugh: well it was just $3.00

They only item I wasnt impressed with was the $2.00 trickle charger. I got me out of many jams:please: when my 24v system let me down. It rolls up and fits in your rear storage hump. Wires frayed and shorted charger. But I did make it home MANY times on that $2 charger. Would I buy another....Hell yah:beerchug::bowdown: times are hard man..... go to Harbor freight.

I've used the tire changer 2-front, 3-rear, 2x dirtbike tires, lawnmower tire, 6 car tires...a little work, but beats the heck of taking them in. I'd definately invest in a quality set of tire spoons though, the cheap one that it comes with will eat the heck outta your rim if not careful:whistle:
 
yea..thats the lift i was looking at...ill pick it up along with some other stuff and give it a try...Thanks for the input guys
 
i have the air operated lift thinking i paid like 600 for it works flawlessly everytime i use it cant even imagine what i would be like no to work on the floor but i agree need to go to a store and put things in your havd to get good judgment on if its good or not
 
Re: Harbor Freight - 1500 lb. MC/ATV Lift (Yellow)

I see that they have these on sale for $69 for the next couple days. Curious to know some reviews on it since the OP didn't reply on how it works. Looking for more than just, "It's great!" and "Love it!".
I'm guessing you have to remove the fairings, correct?
I have a full Ti-Force exhaust...will this be the contact point?

I already have a Pit Bull rear stand, and am really just needing a front stand so I can remove my front wheel and take it to get a new tire put on. I can't for the life of me understand why I'd jump right on the lift, knowing it's still not what I need to get the job done, but still holding out on the front stand???

So...looking for Pros and Cons of the lift and suggestions for a front stand that's not ridiculous.
