    You may have read a Bike Lift thread started by Butch.
    He was looking at a lift from Warana Imports and as it turns out Paulybronco know's the owner.
    With a member's "leg in the door", the notion of potentially getting a forum group discount was raised and Pauly has agreed to put it to the owner.
    So if you're in the market for a lift, this might be a good opportunity.

    To get numbers, register your interest, PM me with your basic order info
    Check out the product at https://waranaimports.com/web/index.php

    Let me know which lift you want, choices are (pre discount prices)
    Cruiser Lifter $299
    Bike Lifter $799
    Air Lifter $1299
    List any accessories you want, extension plates etc
    Include your Town/Suburb and State so Warana can supply a shipping cost for each order.

    DEADLINE, yep lets not fuck around,
    If you want one of these lifts and like the chance of possibly getting a discount
    PM me your info by 5pm next Sunday 29 July 2018
    I'll compile it, let you all know the numbers, send it on to Pauly and then we'll wait.

    Keep in mind, if we get say 10 orders which may or may not lead to a discount and then some people pull out, the deal might collapse.
    I know you'll need a final price before you commit, but if your just looking, don't register.

    Hi Kend, to make your comment useful tell us when you bought them, what brand, model numbers, where you bought them and what you paid ex delivery so anyone interested can look em up to compare. There’s shitloads of air lifts out there from $499. If you’ve found some gooduns, please share the info.

    Thanks Kend, yeah there’s plenty out there. I see H&F sell the stock Chinese lifter for $650, + shipping. I reckon they look better than the Warana manual lift too. Better clamp and action. I found mine good for my old classic bikes but not so much for Harleys.
    Being a copy of the Handy lift the Warana Air Lifter if built right, might be a bargain. The Two Harley dealers here in SA use the Handy lifts as does a mate and their lift action and stability is impressive but at $2,600 the Handy’s a bit prohibitive for casual use. 
    Thanks for the info.

    I installed the Warana airlifted today. Gotta say I’m impressed. Have owned the Chinese pump scissor lifts and used a US Handy. I reckon this one (being based on the Handy) is every bit as good and it came with the forward extension table, bench lift and stabilise bar included in the $1300 price. 
    Well impressed, thanks for the lead Butch.
