nearly five hundred pounds weight in freight LJ ..... sorry you'd have to come get it

beside did you not set a $20 limit !!!!

edit : signed sealed .......picking the blue one up next week

offloaded a 15hp outboard motor I had sitting out in my
garage for 2 years, today on CL, covers the purchase
nicely with a little left over .....for some fun time on an
up coming trip.

I'll be honest: complete overkill. I would have stuck with the 1k lb lift and bought the extensions with the difference. But that's me and I don't have a shed big enough for the blue lift.

Curves and I are going to Vegas in March. No. No. No. , You better not be thinking anything into that. But I would love to do the trip up north. I would have to do at least 1 oil change some where.

let me be honest too then :

If I was just getting this for the bike alone , yeah man you'd be right but
I've good quite a few machines that will go up on it including my bud next
doors sleds .....we exchange a lot of "this for that" kinda stuff ...real neighborly

It'll take up very little space for me man .... mines huge and anyway the
extensions detach in 2 minutes with two slide through bars and some pins.

But really Malbo it came down to doing real well from the sale of the outboard
I sold .......and so have the extra $$ to upgrade & "buy up" one level.

Overkill no way. With this lift that Sprock has Jim and I can both change our oil at the same time...

Hey man, nice going getting that blue one. With the bike up on her and her stand alone weight, that is one walnut cracking SOB. Good job!
