Only harbor freight for me. I can (and did) find better places to spend the extra $200-$300 that I saved instead of buying one of the real expensive lifts. I only use the thing a few times a year anyways.

Although that video on the J&S site is pretty impressive. If I ever need my buddy to wheel me and my bike around while I sit on the front fender, well then I'll know where to look

Harbor freight yellow or aluminum model were infact my first choice, but the versatility and the fact that my Roadking tends to sit up higher made this one a better choice for me as said by other posters here there may be necessity to block up the wheels to compensate for clearance. Also I am concered as in any lift the width of the arms and the stability once up on the lift, even with the tie downs. Once I try it I will give feedback. Just thought I'd share another lift option that I have not seen before previewed on this forum.

HI ALL Thought I'd share this, I did quite of bit of research and comparison shoping and concluded that for the price this is the best I've found so far, do not know the spread of the arms and how they may work with each bike application though..once i get it i will follow up with my experience, even has a tie down feature for added stability.

This flexible design allows the Triple Lift to adapt to multiple types of vehicle frames. A locking safety bar holds the jack in place once the vehicle is raised, which eliminates the hassle of supporting a lifted vehicle with jack stands.

Looks like it would work great with a dirt bike or something else small like a 250-650 size bike.
