The best lift you can buy is in the link below and it shows to be in stock. You will love it compared to the ones that only lift your bike less than a foot in the air.

Ghostrider69, I checked and my lift shipped today!
I assume the back-order status has been resolved.

So I got a cheap Harbor Freight lift and installed the shocks. People were not kidding when they said it was a tight fit. I didn't even think it was the right set up until I messed with the compressor enough to get it wedged in there. Looks great and works just as good. I haven't had a chance to ride it because my 7 year old daughter is visiting me for the month and i don't have another helmet or anyone to watch her right now. I'll get plenty of riding done when she goes back home. Thanks for the help guys.
