Motorcycle Lifts

A motorcycle lift brings the bike to working height — chain, brakes, oil changes, tire work, detailing — without crouching on the garage floor or balancing the frame on a motorcycle jack. My Garage Supplies carries seven motorcycle lifts from Atlas and Tuxedo, priced $1,104 to $2,449: air-operated lift tables for the home garage, 1,500 lb high-rise hydraulic benches for shop work, and ATV-capable platforms that take a quad or side-by-side as readily as a bike. Every listing shows the full price up front, with freight terms on each product page.

Air-Operated Motorcycle Lifts vs. Hydraulic High-Rise Benches

Air-operated (pneumatic) motorcycle lifts run off the shop compressor most garages already own: a foot pedal raises the table, mechanical locks hold it, and there is no electrical hookup. The Tuxedo M-1000C pneumatic motorcycle lift, the Atlas Cyclelift and the Atlas 1,000 lb Air-Operated table are the pattern — 1,000 lb capacity, front wheel vise, air-powered lift and lower. Each listing states the air pressure it needs. Hydraulic high-rise benches like the Tuxedo M-1500C-HR and the Atlas HI-RISE 1500 carry 1,500 lbs, rise higher for stand-up teardown work, and add side extensions and a balance bar for jobs where wheels come off. The Atlas ACL adds a roller plate for wheel service, and the Atlas Cyclelift XLT is the widest ATV-rated deck of the group.

Choosing a Motorcycle Lift for Your Garage

• Capacity: a 1,000 lb motorcycle lift covers nearly every street bike with margin; step to a 1,500 lb high-rise bench for full dressers, trikes and ATVs, or if a helper will be leaning on the deck with you.
• Air vs. hydraulic: air-operated tables need shop air; the hydraulic benches raise with a pump and suit garages without a compressor. If you have neither, check the listing for pump options before you order.
• Deck features: a front wheel vise is the difference between strapping the bike down and clamping it. Side extensions and a balance bar matter the moment a wheel comes off; a drop-out rear panel or roller plate makes tire and chain work faster.
• Motorcycle storage: a lift table doubles as a storage lift — raise the bike and reclaim the floor beneath in a crowded home garage over the winter.
• ATVs and UTVs: the ATV-rated platforms (Atlas Cyclelift XLT, Atlas 1,000 lb Air-Operated, Atlas HI-RISE 1500) take a quad without adapters; check the deck dimensions against your machine's track width.

Motorcycle Lift FAQ

Is a motorcycle lift better than a motorcycle jack? A jack raises the frame a few inches for a quick job; a lift table raises the whole bike, wheels and all, to bench height and holds it on mechanical locks — steadier, safer for long jobs, and it stores the bike raised.

Do I need an air compressor? For the air-operated tables, yes — standard shop air at the pressure stated on the listing. The hydraulic high-rise benches raise with a pump and need no compressor.

Will a motorcycle lift hold an ATV? The ATV-rated Atlas platforms will; standard 1,000 lb tables are sized for bikes. Match deck width and capacity to the machine before ordering.

Can I use it as a motorcycle hoist for storage? Yes — raise the bike, lock the table, and use the floor beneath. That is the most common home-garage use after servicing.

Working on cars too? A dedicated motorcycle lift beats improvising on automotive equipment, but if you need both in one bay, compare our scissor lifts for low-profile car work. Every lift here ships from an authorized US dealer with the manufacturer's warranty intact. Not sure between a standard table and a high-rise bench?
