two sissor lifts - so can lift the motorbikes upto

flush in the ground, so just drive over and raise the lift

designed and built by my dad (lift designer) cost in excess of £5k if done by a lift place, but he aquired most the parts, and built it him self

the two poster will be alot cheaper (£2.5K i think) due to mass produced

anything else you wanna no?

and lifts about 1.5m's not ideal, but better than nothing!
