Default Finally used my J&S jack!

All I can really say is SWEET! It held both the wife's Sporty and my SG without any wobble and moving either bike around the garage was a breeze. If anyone is on the fence about paying the $$$ for one, let me tell you it's well worth the money.

they are so easy to use, I use mine to raise the bike to check air in the tires before a ride and I would swear its easier than laying on the ground and takes less time.

J&S is the way to go. I use mine to air up tires, to store it on all winter so the tires are off the floor and I use it to spin the bike around in the garage so I can pull out going forward. Well worth the money. Very stable. I had a Sears jack and can't imagine putting a twenty some thousand dollar bike on anything that wobbly again.

Thumbs up

+1 on the J&S. Well worth the money, quality construction and rock solid. I've had my Street Glide up on it for a month now. Pulled all the chrome off, front and rear wheels, rolled it all around the garage to work on it and never for a minute felt like it wasn't 100% stable. And that's without any straps or tie downs.

I absolutely love mine. Wait til you wash your bike with it on the jack!!! You'll never wash it sitting on the ground again!!!

J&S is the best jack out there IMO, and their customer service is great as well!

A couple of pics would be great to highlight the differences in the different brands of jacks.....

Thanks!

Agreed, best spent $$$...
I would never do this with my old little red POS

Agreed. Not sorry I paid the extra for this at all. I was swapping out my mufflers the other day, and the right one was really fighting me. I was tugging on it hard, and the bike never gave me that, not sure if its stable feeling. This jack is rock steady, and a breeze to use.

I figure one service that I do myself will just about pay for it anyway.
