Wanted a motorcycle lift and wanted to know what you guys think of this lift.  Its on sale for $300 and I really don't want to spend more.  Can I put the rear stand on the bike while its on the lift and then lift it?  I'll mostly be using it for cleaning and some maintenance as I learn.  I just don't have the enthusiasm to for spinal contortions anymore.

Yes you can use a stand on the table.  I'd just make sure the jaws on the table are wide enough to fit the back wheel tool so you can do work on the front end when needed. 

If/when you use it, I'd looks at and extra method of securing the bike to the table.  A couple quick straps round the trellis down to the table lip would probably do.  The wheel clamp dealy on the table doesn't look like the most robust one ever
