Default Moded a yellow HF jack and fixed front end wobble

So, like it says. Today, thanks to all the great information provided/available here. I discovered how to fix this thing called fall away on the scoot but moreover, the HF yellow jack I bought about 5 months ago was quickly moded to accommodate the SB frame which made it all possible. I am 90% through my 10k service now and have spent a grand total of $120. Nothing else needs to be purchased either. So it was a hell of a good day.

Nice job, feels good to do your own mx. Save money and get to know your bike a lot better.

What did you do to your jack?

Did this same mod to a Harbor Freight Yellow jack I paid $49 bucks for. Just pay attention to the position of the new bolt ends when you assemble b/c it does get tight under there with the jiffy stand.

And this, which is a video referenced here in the forums but easier to find on a you tube search. B/c I didn want to take off my clutch cable. I just tightened down the sprocket. Done.

Did both and finished in time for lunch, wash and wax the scoot, then a quick ride around sundown. Think I did some homework too, I think...
