It's a rented unit for my business, the lift is pure self indulgence, as is the car I just wanted one. Everything in there is either palletised or on wheels so its quite flexible in terms of space. I've got a garage at home but its full up of ......stuff smile
Clean out the garage rich and rent it!!!

I've never seen it, but I know what his garage is like. It's full of bits that will come in handy one day. hehe

Its true. Its full of bits. I swear in 50 years someone is going to find the LC buried in the back for an Epic barn find!

A bit older than an LC, I started putting this back together in the summer. Just got to clean the tank and prime the oil pump to finish. smile

What about one these, It called a Clarke Strong Arm I've had it for about 10 years and has been an excellent bit of kit. Don't think you can buy them new now but I have seen them secondhand... 1800kg max thou so have to take the wheels of the R8 before a full lift biggrin

400 was air cooled, not LC. As for the power bands, 70's 2T bikes were all or nothing. Luckily the 200 doesn't have much when giving its all. hehe
