Bike Lift
 
Has anyone seen or heard of these before?

Eazyrizer

£325 for the Original Red incl VAT and the Ducati frame mounts.

Apparently you can swing off the basteward when it's on - there's some video's on the website.

What do you reckon?

Yeah, they're pretty solid. A lot of shops use them to display bikes on, and they've obviously got to consider people bumping into them.

Not sure how much use it'd be tho if it lifts the bike by its wheels.

Nope, hang on.... you can change it to let you take off the wheel! Quite useful then I guess.

My mate who does servicing uses one, it's ace, really good.

Hi

Just looked at the video and I think that it would get in the way.

For not much more, 350 ish, you can get a decent hydraulic platform lift.

NBs996 13-Oct-2004 18:24

was comparing it to a platform lift, and yep I'd prefer the platform, but if you've not got a lot of space then the EazyRider thing might be a better choice.
tis a bit expensive though.

Where from Felix? Got a website to look at?

Try www.sealey.co.uk use the word hydraulic or these part numbers to search.

My catalogue is out of date but they were doing the cheap one for £ 199.95 plus vat in the summer. The cheapest one part number mc365 is not wide enough for the ducati paddock stand though, it is only 480mm wide

part number mc390 is 690mm wide and is £ 399 inc vat

Good luck

Just looked at the rest of the videos and i am converted it is impressive:lol:

I think the Eazyrizer is better than the hydraulic lift on the Sealey site.

With the hydraulic lift you still need other bits to enable you to take the wheels off. Takes up more room in the garage and I don't have much room in mine. And its cheaper!

The £325 incl VAT also includes the Ducati mounts to lift from the chassis and have free wheels, also you can leave the fairings on apparently.

desmojen 14-Oct-2004 17:59

It's better than a lift because you can get at the bottom of the bike easily when it's up. Makes valve adjustment a relative doddle.
You can also completely strip the bike and lift the frame off the engine, leaving you with your engine on a stand!

HANCYM 14-Oct-2004 18:10

Just taken a look at this on their web site.

Are they trying to suggest that this thing is free standing or bolted down to the concrete pad. I'f the video is supposed to give the impression that the stand IS free standing. I don't believe it for one seccond! Look at the foot print.....or have I just got it all wrong?

marksduc748 14-Oct-2004 20:24

theres a shop in preston and they have a duc in the window actually up in the air on display on a eazi rizer and it isnt bolted to the floor.
there was some one not too long ago selling one on here but cant just remember who it was. I have been thinking of one for a while so let me know how you go on and maybe I would be the next to be converted cos must be a lot more easier when stripping the bike.

m1keyp 15-Oct-2004 15:00

Just bought one today, my local dealer was selling one for a punter.

Doesn't look like he ever used it, it feels solid as a rock and does not need bolting down.

£200:sing::sing::sing::sing::lol:

TP 15-Oct-2004 15:48

Cool, feedback? Photo's? Any more for £200?

m1keyp 15-Oct-2004 17:53

This one is the one with the black loops that lift the wheels they also have (but couldn't find) some other attachments and have ordered me the Ducati specific bits.

I will try it out and post some photos
