    Don't know anything abut them but looking at the web site, they look the business and not a bad price either. One of the fellas had a second hand lift (UK brand) but wasn't able to show a bike actually on it. If you've got room for a large tourer, you've got room for anything.  Good luck. Do a review when you get it.

    Yeah good looking copy Butch. I see the Handy lift weighs 149kg and they reckon the Warana weighs 200kg, same spec so it’s likely to be well made, tempted myself. Thanks for the tip.

    This Ebay lift was a 1/3rd of the price and can handle this one. Not bad.

    Hey John, that lift looks like it does the job but what brand is your 'Ebay' lift?

    Theres about half a dozen brands and ebay listings that use the exact same lift. 
    This is one of those listings:

    My only question is - are they safe? Talking about the steel, welding & hydraulic fittings. Don't know if they must conform to a stringent Chinese manufacturing standard!

    Ok Pauly, Can you please ask him/her how many lifts we (forum members) would collectively need to buy to get a nice discount. I’m happy to coordinate deposits (via their business) to confirm numbers. 
    May as well put it out there, I like the look of their air lifter.

    Thanks Hilly,  know how ya feel about not.f wanting to bend down. I have had spinal fusion at L2/3 & L4/5 S1, plus 2 x donor bone wedges inserted at L4/5. Plus had 2 stents inserted from 2 heart attacks. 
    Bike lift table will make servicing & cleaning a bit easier.
    Thanks for info.

    Yes thanks Pauly
    To get numbers, register your interest, PM me with your basic order info

    Let me know which lift you want, choices are (pre discount prices)
    Cruiser Lifter $299
    Bike Lifter $799
    Air Lifter $1299
    List any accessories you want, extension plates etc
    Include your Town/Suburb and State so Warana can supply a shipping cost for each order.

    DEADLINE, yep lets not fuck around,
    If you want one of these lifts and like the chance of possibly getting a discount
    PM me your info by 5pm next Sunday 29 July 2018
    I'll compile it, let you all know the numbers, send it on to Pauly and then we'll wait.

    Keep in mind, if we get say 10 orders which may or may not lead to a discount and then some people pull out, the deal might collapse.
    I know you'll need a final price before you commit, but if your just looking, don't register.
    (I'll also post this info in the For Sale section)
