How to use a bike lift?
 

Hi all. I've got use of one of these to use for a while, but I've no idea how get my bike onto it and secure it without dropping it. I have front and rear paddock stands that I can use if need-be. Can anyone give me step-by-step 'how to'? Is it a two-man job or can I do it on my own?

Hi Dave

Just whhel the bike onto lift and put it on rear stand and Hey presto

Yep, what Age said.

You can just use the side stand if you're not taking the wheels out.

It won't fall off on it's own - unless you push it over!

I suppose you could strap it if you felt more comfortable, but I never have.

you can also use the front wheel clamp

Thanks Age
Just stick it on the side stand as normal whilst getting the rear paddock stand on? Simple I guess, but I was concerned that it might slip-off. Also, is the wheel-clamp gubbins at the front of any use?

What, on its own with no rear stand?

If you want a hand I can pop around at some point !
