If you have the room they are a grate idea . If i had the room i would have 1 no doubt . But for me it takes up to much room. You can get them from auto jumbles at around £350 .

Couldn`t be without mine, no bending or crouching. You can raise to assist in lifting out the engine without breaking your back. Always buy one with a built in hydraulic pump and a lock off mechanism to ensure it stays up. Best with an adjustable front wheel clamp and tie down holes to strap it on. I have one with a removable plate at the rear which is a real bonus when working on rear wheel. Ensure it has castors to move it around and foot clamps to secure it position. Once you have got all that then I suppose the only choice is colour ? cheers mate been looking on ebay but missed out on one today it had hydraulic pump but no wheels any idea what make @ model as got a fazer 1000 as well in bits that i work on as you say its not good for the knees or back ,and get crap in yer tea ;D
