Jack Stand for Dyna
Ok, any reviews on Jack Stands for the Dyna's? so many choices out there, so little reviews. Just want some experiences from you guru's on what has worked well or not so well. Hopefully this thread can help eithers.
My bike is a 2015 street bob (don't think this makes a difference since Dyna frames are the same). Looking for a center stand that can prop the bike up so I can work on suspension and other goodies during the winter.

awesome, that's a great starting point and a $$$ saver. T
he fact I didn't even realize these bikes need some form of "custom" bracket is nuts for jacking the bikes up. Things were so much easier on sportbikes, everything was universal mostly, none of these customization tools to get basic things done. Thanks!
Love the rims btw

Based on recommendations from this forum and my own research and overall experience I decided to get the J&S. It's not cheap but it is excellent and American made and works great. I plan on using for many years so to me it is worth it.
There are others out there that will work too. I say do your own research and decide what you want.

My J&S is 7 years old and it still works like new. Plus the oil catch pan is awesome.
I also have the J&S Wheel Chock. You can use it on a trailer or on flat ground. I'd get the tie down extensions and the narrow wheel adapters with it.

I'm just a country boy.
I sure nuff ain't paying those high prices.
I use this
Second one I made I used thicker metal.Both work great but one is more stable slightly. Nether will shake or rock, solid.
took a little over a hour to make and made from cut off's

I tried the cheap route (Harbor Freight) and the Dyna wouldnt sit level or securely without fashioning some sort of bracket. I took it back for a refund and ordered the J&S.
J&S is worth every penny. Bike lifts and sits level and secure evry time, with no brackets or levelers. Great crinkle finish and my oil drain pan fits nicely. Best purchase i have made for my bikes.
