Motorcycle Lift 11 Months, 4 Weeks ago
Just got the Harbor Freight flier. The $120 lift has a coupon for $80. It's good until the end of June.

Re:Motorcycle Lift 11 Months, 4 Weeks ago
If you wait and watch you can get it for less. I got the same jack last fall (2011) for $60.00. $80.00 is good, but they run that sale every couple of months.

The trick is to step all the way down quickly all the way down is slow and half way down drops the lift quickly but it is a great lift
