$349.99 and I assume plus shipping. At 410 lbs, shipping will not be cheap.... |

$299.99 on sale if you have a local store then store can order it and there is no shipping cost. Regular $399.99 sale is good till 26th of December. It is a foot pump. I think the online estimate was like 38 bucks though. Once I got it out of the crate it was easy to move around. Took four of us to load it into my truck and I got it out my self. Thankfully it did not fall on me. |

Yeah you will have to move some bikes around there John. It is big but not that bad of a foot print actually. Only way I have room for it is to leave a bike on it. Lucky or unLucky for me the Electra Glide is torn down a bit so it can reside there for the time being. Damn now I need a bigger garage. Hey John there is another one at Harbor Freight in San Bernardino. They must have ordered two when they placed my order. |

I may give them a call. Does it come with a tire vise or an option for one? I would probably leave the BMW on it Hey,Is it getting cold up there yet?...John |

front tire vise is included, as well as 2 tie down loops at the center point |

In the 40's mostly sometimes in the 30's at night. Luckily no moisture to speak of so ice has not been a problem. Yep like Diablobrian said vice included with a tire stop and tie down loops. Plus a sliding panel for easy rear wheel removal, though you would still need a center stand or a jack under the bike to keep it upright after tire removal. It is pretty slick. |

I have race stands I use to remove the wheels so I hadn't considered needing to block the bike up on the lift. It should also be mentioned there is a safety bar that keeps the lift from lowering at the wrong moment. Big beefy steel bar, not some silly little latch. |

does it collapse low enough to park a car over it in the garage when not in use? |

Depends on the ground clearance of the car, plus it would hit the tire clamp as it sticks up aways. |
