I have been using my J&S lift on my 2018 Lowrider and it barely fits underneath the bike. I see the Heritage sits a little lower than the Lowrider. My question has anybody used a J&S lift with a 2018+ Heritage? If so how did it fit underneath the bike?
That's what I thought. But if you look at the specs the Lowrider shows a ground clearance of 5.1 inches. The Heritage shows a ground clearance of 4.7 inches. I think because that Heritage has smaller diameter wheels and tires it sets lower. But I hope I am incorrect and you are correct.

I was only thinking of the longer rear shock on the Heritage which more than makes up for the tire difference in the rear where the suspension geometry is the same. The lowrider may be taller in the front depending on the forks.

I have the J&S and it fits under my 2020 Heritage with no problem.
Hello
I have J&S jack and I have used it on my 2019 Heritage.
The bike kick stand is mounted differently on my 2019 than my previous 2014.
The placement of the kick stand sets back I would say about 4/5 inches towards the back of the bike .
My J&S lift does come in contact with the kick stand. It touches the cross bar between the wheels of the jack. Prior, my 2014, the jack would be beside the stand with no issue.
The bike is secure when lifted up. Make sure as you probably know, be on a flat surface .
I hope this helps.
I notice the sidestand location interferes with my lift as well. Just one more thing I hate about the new sidestand design. That's what happens when you let the new hire design your motorcycle.
