How lift the bike ?

Post by autofetish »

Gents

The bike is looking like it will need clutch adjustment every run and really needs a better checking over.

Ultimately I'm trying to get it up on builders trestles in the pits.

Looking for a low cost cheap light easy 1 man way.

Anyone got any good ideas

I would think a modified version of a regular motorcycle lift would be the easiest solution? Or perhaps some sort of roof mounted boom off the back of your van with a winch to lift it up onto trestles?

Lifting A-frame and electric hoist to get it on your trestles, could even use your van as one side of the A-frame.

I'm with blue on a regular bike lift , like in last pic.
I'd imagine your only problem would be your ground clearance , but that could be easily sorted with some ramps. :thumbright:

Any margin in using something like a sack truck with an extended tongue?

Engage the end of the tongue to a point on the chassis, pivot the truck on the wheels, slide tressel in, take sack truck around the other end, lift in same manor and slide the 2nd tressel in?

Those wheelie pallet lifters would be good to get it on trestles. They are quite bulky though and if you didn't have trestles you would struggle to work on both sides

How about something like this to lift it at either end? Then the stands would double as the trestle.

Thank you all very much

Attaching onto the van is a great idea and missed a trick here now the van is full lined :(

I managed to get a freedom washing machine lifter cheap today so will give that ago.

Going to look like a circus in the pits

Will,
How about something like this mounted in the van (if there is still room for the bike)
