• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Here's a Simple Alteration to help your Lift Table suit a Spyder.

If you happen to own this style lift table with removable wings, you can easily widen it for a Spyder by replacing the (3) support tubes. My original tubes were 49" in length. My new tubes are 1" (1.31actual OD) threaded black pipe 60" in length with pipe caps on each end. All from Home Depot Plumbing. Approx. $100 bucks. Bike shown is an F3.

That is impressive. Which lift table is that/where did you get it? Is it compressed air driven?

Thanks in advance.
 
Thank you for your post. I have a similar lift to yours which I was thinking of selling it for a Big Blue lift.

Would you mind giving me a couple of measurements? First is height of your table fully collapsed from the floor to top of the ramp. Second is what is the length of the removable approach ramps?

Your approach ramps appear to be somewhat longer than mine.

I bought this used in 2018. The brand is Direct-Lift. The closest model I find online today is Weaver Lift.

Weaver® TX-1000-XLT Motorcycle Lift

The TX-1000-XLT Weaver Motorcycle Lift is the popular TX-1000 plus the extra TX-XLT side extension kit to allow for 48" of total width.

It is powered by compressed air.

1. 7-1/4" 2. 20"

BTW, the bike is backed on because when driving it on forward, the air dam contacts the ramp.
 
Thank you ever so much for the measurements, very much appreciated. A trip to Home Depot is in order as your measurements are the same as mine.

Let the modifications begin!
