Hi CDR:

Sorry, I thought you were referring to one like this one from Princess Auto;

That's what I use.  In any case, I had the same one as PC as well and it also works great using hockey pucks.

  mine is like PC's and then I had to lengthen the arms to lift by the frame and so added other parts to make it lift the 800 properly.

I use this one on my 1500.  I also use a Drifter lift adapter.  You do have to fill the hydraulic cylinder with oil, and bleed out the air when you get it.  Other than that, it's plug and play.

I found the ATV/Motorcycle Lift from Canadian tire that the arms were not long enough to go between the frame. The arms were only 12" and on the 800 you need to be 15".....

The Harbor Freight one is that way on my 1500.

You don't need any mods: remove the 'stands', add a couple of appropriately placed hockey pucks and you're off to the races.

If the Harbor freight one is like the one I bought from Canadian Tire then you will have to mod it to lift on the frame not the engine.

I lift my 1500 on one, but I have to use a couple of 2x4's so I'm not lifting on the oil pan.

Does the Harbor Freight motorcycle lift, not the table, but the lift need any mods to work with an 800 drifter or will it work right out of the box?

Browsing the other day I found some tips from someone who taken their site down but someone on this list had saved and archived. The site was a link on another post and I cannot find it again. Any ideas?
