johna Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I would like to buy a motorcycle lift in the Bangkok area. I can find nothing in Home Pro or similar outlets in the Rangsit area the lift pictured extends from 9cm to 50cm my bike has no centre stand, an original part will cost 13000 Baht So I am looking for something a lot cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) papa bought one for my dirt bike last week. It extends up 50 cm as well. 2500baht. I think she said she can get more and can mail deliver. Also bought a decent paddock stand for 1000baht at a Pattaya shop. BKK must offer same.

papa al Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Why do you require this type of lift? A paddock stand won't suffice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johna Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 Why do you require this type of lift? A paddock stand won't suffice? You need two paddock stands, a single lift is cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 How much does an appropriate lift cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johna Posted October 10, 2015 Author Share Posted October 10, 2015 How much does an appropriate lift cost? I don't know how much they cost locally, I haven't managed to find one. Amazon and eBay UK about £50, but it weighs 13 KG and there would be import tax, so if I can find one locally it would be much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Right. 50 seems very reasonable. I'll check ebay. A pair of paddock stands, ~4K. (+)The much bigger base of support of paddock stands affords a much more stable configuration. (-) I feel like the dirt bike is quite susceptible to tippage when it's up on center lift. (+)It does lift it a lot higher though... (-) farther to fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papa al Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 They sell these car jacks here for 500baht. So you saved half that by hand-carrying one. Good exercise. How are these used to support a bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
