In an industry that’s as competitive as the auto repair shop industry, it’s your obligation as a shop owner to arm yourself with the very best manufacturers have to offer. Now, many big shops with money sometimes just buy the most expensive pieces of equipment because customers will visually respond better to high-end expensive equipment but as you may know, in this industry, more expensive is not always better.
When browsing around for motorcycle lifts there are dozens of options that are available and choosing the one that’s “right” is easier said than done. You want to look at price, capacity, warranty, specifications and last but not least, manufacturer.
Today here at JMC we want to talk about a specific motorcycle lift manufacturer that’s been making noise in the industry from their home in Greenwood, Indiana thanks to their top of the line motorcycle lifts. They started as small fish in a big pond swimming with the likes of Bendpak and Challenger Lifts but in the motorcycle lifts department, our sales for the past few months say they’re no longer little fish.
