well, i ve thought about going this route years ago, but the size and cost of a good lift table was just not going to happen, you can find rather cheap lift tables for smaller bikes, like dirt bikes and stuff, but they are not suitable for a nomad, sooo i got a craftsman bike jack, and everytime i lift the bike i put a jackstand under each rear crash bar and use all 3 pieces to support the bike, this really helps stabilize the bike, i ve done both tires at once like this several times, works really good! my trick to change the rear tire this way is i have a regular floor jack as well that i put under the tire and jack it right up into place and slide in the axle, sure beats trying to muscle it in there!

How do you take the tires off on a lift table without using a jack?

For the money Harbor freight $500, watch and you can catch them on sale for 350 , HF also runs online discount coupons for 20-30%
For home use you really can beat the price although some feel that the front wheel chock is less than desirable and needs beefed up
