I really like this stand, especially for the cost! The material isn't the heaviest-duty available, but it does the job well enough and doesn't feel cheap. The one complaint about the design I have is that there's no bushing for the platform tube to ride in, so the base of the tube gets scratched as the lift drops down, but so far it hasn't affected performance at all (just aesthetics). I've used the lift with both my KTM 500 EXC-F, which is a tall dirt / dual-sport bike, as well as my KTM 890 Adventure R, and it does well with both, even with the big adventure bike being slightly over the rated capacity. Note: I do not take responsibility for nor recommend going over the rated capacity. I do wish there was a slightly higher quality version of this available with a bit heavier-duty construction that also fixes the paint scraping issue above, and would go up to 500lbs rather than 440lbs, but in short of that, this does work \"well enough\" for my needs.
