  Great replacement for my 14-year old Lift Buddy

  Aug 7, 2019

  I purchased the LD1K lift after my 14-year old Lift Buddy motorcycle lift failed. It had been a great lift for my 2003 Yamaha Star, but when the hydraulic cylinder failed to extend I could not find anyone interested in repairing, and Lift Buddy no longer made motorcycle lifts. So, had the old Lift Buddy removed and replaced it with the nearly identically sized Redline Engineering LD1K. Plus, this was an upgrade, because the LD1K offered the option of using air pressure to raise the lift instead of manually pumping. My DeWalt 4.5-gallon home air compressor was able to accomplish that task, although manually pumping up the lift was also not a problem for my 630-pound motorcycle.
  
  The LD1K's tire vice was not quite as huge as the tire vice my Lift Buddy had, so agree with Redline's instructions to also use straps. After some experimentation found that strapping via the highway pegs on the engine guards gave rock solid mounting, so it's not a big deal to use straps along with the tire vice.
  
  Also appreciate the quick assistance Redline Engineering provided in issues for motor freight delivery to my location; that ended up making the residential, "inside" delivery work out.
  
  The LD1K came well packaged in a wooden crate, so also will provide additional firewood after removing the nails and cutting up.
