Tuxedo M-1500C-HR-BLK — 1,500 lb High Rise Motorcycle Lift Bench
The Tuxedo M-1500C-HR-BLK is an air/hydraulic high-rise motorcycle lift bench rated for 1,500 lb, built for motorcycles, snowmobiles, ATVs, jet skis, and similar powersport equipment. This is the black powder-coat finish edition — identical lift mechanism, capacity, and included accessories to the standard-finish M-1500C-HR, in a black housing.
The 88-1/2 in x 50 in platform raises from a 6-3/4 in minimum to a 38-1/2 in maximum working height — a genuinely higher working height than the M-1000C's 30 in max, letting techs work standing upright on drivetrain, suspension, and exhaust service without bending over.
A vise, side extensions, and balance bar ship standard, along with the air/hydraulic pump — giving you clamping and lateral stability out of the box rather than as add-on purchases.
Who It's Built For
- ✅ Shops wanting a higher working height (38-1/2 in) than a standard motorcycle lift for extended service sessions
- ✅ Techs who want a vise, side extensions, and balance bar included rather than bought separately
- ✅ Shops servicing motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, and jet skis up to 1,500 lb
What It's NOT Built For
- ❌ Shops that only need basic capacity and don't need the high-rise height or included accessories — see the lower-cost M-1000C
- ❌ Loads over 1,500 lb
Want the standard finish instead? See the M-1500C-HR. Questions about fit, freight, or capacity? Call Alamo at (817) 865-3707.
What Makes the M-1500C-HR-BLK Different
Higher Working Height Than the M-1000C
38-1/2 in max lifting height vs the M-1000C's 30 in — a genuinely higher working position for extended service sessions on drivetrain and suspension work.
Vise, Side Extensions, and Balance Bar Included
These ship standard on the M-1500C-HR, where the M-1000C treats a vise and side extensions as separate accessory purchases (M-VISE, M-SIDEEXT).
Higher Capacity for Larger Powersport Equipment
1,500 lb capacity handles heavier touring motorcycles, ATVs, and jet skis than the M-1000C's 1,000 lb rating.
Built-In Drop-Out Panel
A built-in drop-out panel section on the platform gives access underneath for undercarriage and exhaust service without removing the bike from the lift.
✅ Best For
- ✅ Shops wanting the higher working height and included vise/extensions/balance bar
- ✅ Heavier powersport equipment up to 1,500 lb
❌ Not Ideal For
- ❌ Shops on a tighter budget that don't need the included accessories — the M-1000C costs less
