Looking for a motorcycle platform lift, preferably in need of work or not working at all to keep it cheap as possible. Cheers.

I'll be getting rid of an old hospital bed that has been turned into a bike lift bench shortly.

Not the flashest but most likely to be the cheapest.

watch the type you buy a number won't take big road bikes.

Yellywrestler is right about some of the lighter build chinese ones; however, my old 1960-70's (reefton) hopsital bed I converted into a bike lift (i fitted a strong plywood top and glue on a lenght of vinyl) has given faithfull service lifting both my race bike and also Yamaha r1.

Good luck
