Did this because my Malossi exhaust pipe drops lower than the stock one and interferes with the lifting points.
The result is a very sturdy platform to lift from and still maintain 3 points of contact on the scoot.
Hope it gives you all some ideas.

Re: Harbor Freight 1500 lb Lift
I dug out my ATV jack and did a modification on it so that I can lift the whole bike by the center stand.

I think I'm going to get one of those seats. More professional than an upturned bucket.WhiteNoise wrote:kcpcx, I still plan on posting some lift pics of mine and sharing my experience putting it together. Just need to find some time.
I agree with your thoughts about challenging Harbor Freight on their 20% off coupon. I juggled that thought around in my head before ordering it. I did so over the phone a few minutes before the End of that Great Sale. The gal I had on the phone was just a cust.rep. So I "didn't go there" with her. No point. Not the smartest tool in the shed (sorry).
If I had gone to my local store I would have approached the manager to prove my case with coupon in hand. Showing that it doesn't mention "lifts" as excluded...just floor jacks.
I definitely think you can get your way should you decide to buy one. And yes!! I do remember the day when HF was more lenient! 20% on top of the already listed sale was Not unusual. Ah the times, they have changed
Bit safer too as buckets seem to be getting weaker

Re: Harbor Freight 1500 lb Lift
For you 2yous, a photo of my roller (toy). Go buy one! Don't wait! Worth the pennies! 
I'd like to get me another. When "stuff" is about yer feet you can't roll around, so it would be easier to just get up, walk to the other side (of vehicle being serviced) and sit on another to roll again. I def like that they go up and down with a pneumatic lever. Easy peazy
This along with my table, has "lifted me higher..."
