I've been looking at that pretty hard. I have a couple of HF tools and they're not bad. It might make life a little easier for my rebuild. But I wonder how sturdy it would be. It was reviewed pretty well on the web site.

I looked at them in the HF store last time I was down in Montana - it appears to be identical to the unit I bought from Princess Auto here in Alberta, and its great. Perhaps the only comment I'd make is it would be nice if the deck was a little bit wider as I find the foot bar on the GT750 centre stand is perhaps a bit tight to the raised side rail - other than that I'm really happy with it. 8)

we have that same one at work, and im not 100% confident in the wheel lock. i usually put a couple straps on teh bike as well. would be awesome if you put your bike on it and then put the bike on a set of race stands so you could strip more parts off llike wheels and suspension.

Any car or motorcycle magazine will yield a 20% off coupon, making this table a fantastic deal---around $240.00 plus tax---I may need another one!!!!!

They won't let you use a 20% coupon with a coupon item anymore. If it's on sale yes, you can still use the 20% coupon, but you can't use two coupons.
