seedy Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Cool. Can use Horizontal, Wheelie or Stoppie Abba Sky Lift Would Love the Multistrada !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSJ Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Love the lift! But at 437 pounds plus freight, import duty and tax that works out on the wrong side of 45k baht! Think I will make my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Nice to see how the Bursig Paddock Stand initial design is transforming into new ideas on bike lift design. Sent from my SM-T211 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Prefer to go to a good service with lifts. Bc it is not ending with thr lift. If you buy this you need a large space anf also lots of tools lets say like a small mechanic shop. All possibly cost you 3 times more than 45 k thb. So unless you do business or a fanatic mech of your bikes, this kind of investment is not reasonable for me. 100.000 km - 4 years - of service of a honda big bike is costing 30 - 40 k thb. Lift looks perfect though. Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Edited April 12, 2014 by ll2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubberSideDown Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 ^ It's not about the cost, but rather it's about the convenience- I've got a Bursig stand, but I really like this Abba lift (which, as Garry noted, is based on the Bursig). Like any great tool or mechanical aid, if you buy something really high-quality to start with, the 'pain' of the initial expense fades, and you're just happy you have it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VocalNeal Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 How much are local pneumatic lifts they are good for about 500 Kgs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubberSideDown Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I just cleaned and waxed my chain- having a Bursig stand makes the job so easy- the rear is up 5cm and the front 3cm (both adjustable)- I'd love to be able to lift it higher, though- I'm going to look for a real lift later in the year, but this works well in the meantime. Luxury;) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubberSideDown Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 That pic is before I hit it with the detailer wax- when it's too not in the afternoon to enjoy a ride, cleaning/maintaining the bike buys me a peaceful hour in the garage with some good tunes cranked, so it always looks pretty good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seedy Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 How much are local pneumatic lifts they are good for about 500 Kgs? Just sent an email this morning. Italian brand sold in BKK. Electric over hydraulic. With side table extensions. Will post the price when received - if I don't keel over dead when reading it !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the reason I wash my bike myself, get a chance to check it over. Also do walk around before each ride, and a good look around weekly. Find it very enjoyable, and have found many things over the years which were a minor problem to fix - but a big problem if left too long. Nice bike by the way !

KSR is one recent one - not a good state of affairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSJ Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I like to clean underneath which is hard to do without a lift. I hate that brown film that gets on the alloy.....and the pressure cleaner won't get it off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont have time to do more than this therefore dont need an expensive lift. If you love to do everything on the bike by yourself and does not receive a good service around, then getting a lift is the best option but not for everyone.
