Motorcycle lift table conversion

Guess I am a really lazy SOB since I purchased handy lift with extensions. Connect the air hose, actuate the valve & watch it lift. Lifted my Kubota BX1850 with FEL & MMM.

I'm glad you can do these simple things without pain. I wish we all could as we get older. How often do I need to do this? Maybe onceor twice a year for each vehicle but even that is too much. Will converting my cycle lift cost money and make it easier to work on my cycle and ATV, Yes it will. I consider myself able bodied and have always worked on my own vehicles. I choose to do it as easy as possible as to not cause aches and pains. I have severe arthritis in many places in my body. My doctor is in disbelief that I can do what I do in my garage. He tells me to take my stuff to others and let them work on it but I can't afford to do that. I can see by the outside work you do you are in better shape than I so good health to you my friend. I'm happy you are in better health than I.
I never said I could do it without pain... I said I could still do it...

IF you looked at very many of my picts., you saw that I try to get help for much of my heavier work, like firewood. On some forums I take some heat for having help all the time but I'm disabled too, so that's why I have the help.

Like I said, I have two of those lifts, for as many times as they get used in a year, it's no big deal to pump one up with my leg.

I think that this thread is more about working smarter, nothing really to do with being lazy. Matter of fact, I'm 72 and not hindered physically but I actually made this mod because:

#1. I can
#2. I have all the resources to do it
#3. I don't own anything "STOCK"
#4. I love having "POWERED TOOLS"

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

They make an after market one that bolts right on the existing pump and makes it pneumatic or foot pump. No fitting or fabricating. Air hose not included lol.
