I know people use old hospital beds as scooter benches, the big one purpose built ones are very expensive, so I was wondering if anyone has any other suggestions for. Scooter lift/bench. There are some small hydraulic ones on eBay but they look too narrow :?:

A lot of the red bike lifts aren't wide enough for Lambretta stands although a lot of peeps will weld side bits, so check the width..

Stateside a company called Harbor Freight imports Chinese and other Asian made goods by the container if not boatload. From looking at British model railways magazines - and Model Engineer when I see it - similar goods are being imported there. Said all that to suggest that hydraulic lifts such as HF imports could do the job...with modifications in some cases.

Consider their 68892 or 99887 if you can find their equivalents.
