Harbor Freight Motorcycle Lift Upgrade-Watch This Before You Install!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The JeniusBiker upgrades the Harbor Freight motorcycle lift with the latest offering from Harbor Freight! I have two of these lifts and have used them quite a bit without issue.
If you find the video informative give me a like and if you are interested in more videos subscribe. I don’t get paid by Harbor Freight and I paid for my lift and wheels vise with my own funds. I have provided links below, please use my Amazon affiliate links to help support the channel, it doesn’t cost you anything.
Thanks!
The price on the lift has gone up significantly so I’d wait for sales or coupons before picking one up. www.harborfreight.com/1000-lb...

Nice set of Drill bits for drilling thru your lift: amzn.to/3PM8lUL
Gotta use a center punch before drilling, believe me this small investment will have you drillin like a pro: amzn.to/3PQh7kN
I use a Craftsman Drill: amzn.to/3Kho9xU
And these cheap batteries: amzn.to/3RbvBgj
I use a bunch of different cutters to open boxes, this will be my next one: amzn.to/3AIlFW7
If you have a better lift setup for the money, let me know in the comments section!

    Thanks for the video! I've already purchased the upgraded wheel vise and am planning to install it this weekend. I appreciate the advice on drilling fewer holes/hole size. I'm going to do the same!

    Great video man, my son and I were just down in Daytona and I happened to see a vendor working on a couple bikes and that’s where I saw the new vise so as soon as I got back into town I had to get one to replace that POS that came on it, I was always nervous with my streetglide or road king in that original vise maybe now I can relax some with the new, sturdier one…..can’t wait to install it

    The stock vise on mine is still wrapped in bubble wrap, I used a chock made to mount on trailer, it holds bike up at least long enough to get off and strap it down.....it might hold it forever but I haven't tested it Venom wheel chock off amazon, but look around cheaper ones might be just as good, I can't see I did get hf wide stand alone chock, about $50, too wide to mount on lift, Harley has one similar cost way more....in the pictures you can't see why you'd pay more, but when you see both in person the Harley chock is about 20lbs heavier and way sturdier than the hf

    I did exactly as you said, only drilled the holes needed to mount the unit pieces, also i wait 'till H F has their discount prices, 25% off, vice was $59.95. the original vice is useless. not safe for one person to put a bike on the lift. good lift made better & safer.. I'm Tim, not Susan..

    Hi, new subscriber from the UK. Are you still preferring the vise to the wheel chock ?

    So you like the vise over the wheel choke? Are you able to use alone or need help?

    So far I’m liking the vise more. It’s easier to load and unload the bikes. I usually hold the handle bar with one hand and tighten vise with the other. For a heavy bike I might drop the side stand just in case, but yes I use it alone for loading and unloading.

    Should’ve watched this first, drilled all the holes then got online to figure out why, stupid instructions. Also a stepper bit works way better
