TradeQuip 2101T 450kg Motorcycle Lift: Built for Cruisers
Get your bike off the floor and work at a comfortable height. The TradeQuip 2101T is a hydraulic motorcycle lift with a 450 kg safe working capacity, raising the platform from 175 mm to a 750 mm working height with a simple foot pump. No compressor needed.
It's designed for cruisers and mid weight tourers, and it handles ATVs, ride-on mowers, snowmobiles, jet skis and small tractors too.
Why the TradeQuip 2101T Earns Its Spot

- Foot pump hydraulics. Pump to lift. No air supply needed.
- Two foot pedals. One raises, one lowers, so your hands stay free. Lowering is stepless and controlled, whatever the load.
- 11 gauge steel plate. Powder coated, heavy duty structural steel construction.
- Locking bar. A two position platform lock stops accidental lowering at working height.
- Front wheel vice. Adjustable, oversize and rubber lined, with a choice of mounting holes to suit different bikes.
- Diamond plate deck. Non slip surface with a stop plate and tie down strap access ports.
- Rear wheel access. A sliding plate covers the rear wheel removal opening in the platform.
- Full width loading ramp. Extra long and removable, and it suits bikes on kickstands.
- Castors to move it. Wheels and swivel castors for positioning, plus lockdown bolts to keep it planted while you work.
- Oil trap plate. Catches drips for easy drainage.
Will It Fit Your Bike?

The platform is 2200 mm long and 680 mm wide. It's best suited to cruisers of 2300 to 2500 mm overall length, with a recommended wheelbase of 1600 mm. Shorter road and MX bikes fit too.

Setting Up
Some assembly is needed: fit the sliding plate, loading ramp, front wheel vice, baffle plate and the two foot pedals. Before first use, the pump sits for an hour so the oil settles, then the system is bled following the owner's manual.
Use the lift on a hard, level surface, ideally concrete. Wind the adjusting screw down to lift the castors off the ground before you start work.
Safe Use
- Never exceed the 450 kg safe working capacity.
- The loading ramp is only for wheeling the bike on at the lowest height. Don't leave the rear wheel on it or lift with weight on it.
- Clamp the front wheel in the vice and strap the bike to the platform before lifting.
- Pass the locking bar through the front lifting arm once you reach working height.
- Keep it in one spot. Don't move the lift with a load on it.
- Top up with hydraulic jack oil only, never brake fluid.
Warranty
TradeQuip covers the 2101T for 12 months from purchase against defects in materials and workmanship (90 days if the lift is hired out). Normal wear and tear, misuse, modifications and accident damage aren't covered.
