'08 R3T - Ol' Blue

Has anyone taken a look at these or had any experience with them. As I understand it, The proper unit for the R3 is the Big Blue at $600 per unit.

It looks pretty skookum, but a little pricey at $600. They're out of Georgia. I have an email into them asking some specifics about 2008 R3T applications. We'll see what comes back.

I would recommend them... lifts my R3T safely, mirrors above head height, holds stable at any level, 360 degree access to bike, easy remove both wheels

..I got one..don't like it..now it does lift the bike up way high, but the bike is not rock solid stable while it is up on the lift..to much flex for me..and it's a real pain in the ass to get the 'special' attachments in the brackets of the frame, then fastened onto the lift (those brackets are another piss poor design by Triumph)..and it won't go up and down with the use of an elctric drill..I have to use a ratchet..I wish I would have gotten this one instead..

..oops..don't get the one in the link..I just saw where it doesn't lift our Rockets..

I have an email into the PitBull guys asking about R3T applicationns. I like the rolling capability where the Big Blue is stationary. I don't think the turntable thing is really necessary for another $200. I'll move the Barcalounger first.

I have a Pitbull lift for my Boss Hoss and the lift is enormously strong. The Boss weighs 1200+ lbs. and the lift has no sweat with it.
The thing is that I cannot figure out lifting points for my R3 Classic. What's the story with this?
Thanks in advance.

idk said:

It is not hard to make a bracket that would work with that unit. The bracket that I made works well with ATV jacks and would also work with that.

I agree, but for $420 should I have to? Also, which unit - the Dyna or the Standard? So far, no response from PitBull.
