Title: Service Tables
Post by: Thingy on December 06, 2009, 11:34:41 PM
I want to buy a motorcyle table but all I can find online are the hydraulic lift service tables.  What I want is the type of table that you would see under the Yoshimura canopy, for example.  Just a regular table with folding legs and a ramp that I can put the bike on with front and rear stands.  I can't seem to remember any of the brands that I have seen over the years and can't believe I can't find anything online.  I appreciate the help guys!

Dennis Kirk sells this one for $270 (Powerstands Racing Power Platform)

No offense, but thosae stands suck.  They are very weak, and parts fall of them.  I had ordered 3 of them from Tucker Rocky, and sent them all back.  I wanted one for the same reason and 2 for the shop. 

Go to Harbour Freight, they sell a lift that is portable with wheels, hydraulic too-foot petals pump for a few hundred dollars. 

I use 2 of those in the shop along side with the expensive lifts you're referring too.

Yep, that is the type of table that I am looking for.  I know that I have seen several different brands over the years.  Does anybody know where I might find some other brands?  I am a little leary of the Powerstands after the last post.

I can't take credit for it. Huey from Marrietta Motorsports told me about it.

That s definitely a good idea, and cheap.  The primary feature that I am looking for is the ability to easily fold it up (or take it apart) to get it out of the way.  That is why I don't want one of the big hydraulic tables.  I have limited space to park my motorcycles when I am not working on them.

Bill,
That table I have you can take apart. I just bolted mine together because I have the room for it in my garage. A few screws and it collapses into 6 pieces of plywood. I added the diamond plate just cuz...

Donnie Unger @ Ducpond Motorsports makes a nice folding aluminum table. IT is way nicer than the Powerstands POS at about the same cost.
