Scissor-lift designs (a wide platform raised by a scissor mechanism) are the workshop default — they support the entire bike on a flat platform, suit any motorcycle from sportsbike to large tourer, and give clear access to underside components. Post-lift designs use a single central post raising the bike via centre-stand pickup points — compact and suited to home-enthusiast garages where floor space is limited. For workshop use, scissor-lift is the practical choice; for home-enthusiast occasional use, a post-lift saves space and cost.
Paddock stands lift the bike off either wheel for tyre changes, chain cleaning, or storage. Rear paddock stands engage the swingarm — either at swingarm-bobbins (small bolts on the swingarm — most race and sport bikes have these) or via a hook design that goes under the swingarm. Front paddock stands lift via the front axle — either through-axle pin or under-yoke fork-leg pickup. For mixed bike types, choose universal paddock stands with adjustable bobbin width or supplied with multiple cup styles. For frequent use on a single bike, dedicated swingarm-bobbin stands are the fastest to use.
Match the lift's rated capacity to the heaviest bike you'll service plus 25% margin. Sportbikes typically run 180-220 kg wet weight; standard road bikes 200-280 kg; touring bikes and adventure bikes 280-380 kg; cruiser and large-engine bikes can exceed 400 kg. For workshop use covering all bike types, choose 450-680 kg / 1000-1500 lb capacity lifts. The rated capacity is listed on every lift product page; never overload.
Yes. Motorcycle-specific service tools — fork-seal drivers (sized to the fork tube diameter), chain breakers and rivet tools (sized to the chain pitch — 415, 420, 428, 520, 525, 530), sprocket-holding tools, crankcase splitters, and clutch-spring compressors — are available across the common motorcycle tool ranges. Match by chain pitch, fork tube diameter, or motorcycle make and model. WhatsApp 07754288583 with the bike details if the specific tool you need isn't listed.
