A Better Way to Lift Motorcycles
GlideLift was born from frustration—and from experience.
As a career mechanic, engineer, and former shop owner, I’ve lifted countless motorcycles. I’ve used just about every system out there. Some work okay, but all of them come with compromises: limited lift height, awkward setups, or tools that eat up space without offering flexibility.
Most motorcycle lifts are table-style platforms. They’re big, heavy, and take up a ton of room—even when not in use. The affordable ones are often too flimsy for serious bikes. The heavy-duty models are expensive, immobile, and still serve just one purpose. Once a bike is on the table, you get what you get—limited adjustability, no alternate uses.
Some systems mount to the arms of a 2-post lift, but that approach still forces you to wrestle the bike into position between the posts. That’s not safer. It’s just more complicated.
So I flipped the process.
With GlideLift, you secure the bike first—just like you would when loading into a trailer. You do it safely, in open space, away from the lift. Then you simply roll the platform into place. The arms of a standard two-post car lift engage underneath and do what they were designed to do.
The result is faster, safer, space-saving, and more versatile than anything else on the market.
Designed by an Engineer / Mechanic
I’ve spent decades diagnosing problems, fabricating solutions, and building custom equipment when the available tools weren’t good enough. GlideLift is the tool I always wished I had—and now I do.
It works with almost any motorcycle. It doesn’t care if you ride a bagger, a sport bike, an ADV rig, or a chopper. If it mounts to a trailer, it’ll fit on GlideLift.
And best of all—it’s designed to work with the lift you already have.
Why I Built It
Because motorcycle lifts shouldn’t take over your whole garage.
GlideLift doesn’t just lift bikes—it makes your two-post lift do double duty. Full lift height, rock-solid stability, and a platform that doubles as an elevated motorcycle storage solution, adjustable-height workbench, or shelf when you’re done wrenching.
It’s one of those things that just makes sense the moment you see it.
