This is when had my Victory, but had every Model Harley there is on it as well except the V-Rod .. Victory is a fairly heavy Bike this is almost all the way up, could go up one more notch on it but was stable enough to roll it all around the garage with No Straps, although is not a bad idea to strap it if going to do any wrenching on it .. Had my J&S for 10 Years and still works like it's New ..

Hey Chris - Yet again you've caught me when I'm out for the day, so I can't measure anything now... But yes, I really like my rolling shop chair... It's very good for doing work on either side of the bike, and is about the right height with the lift. I've toyed with an above-ground two post car lift too... There's one that fits in a normal garage and will lift a car 48". I thought this would work well under a car at that height (the lift is about two grand, but I would be even or better if it allowed me to change the Italian belts/tensioners myself just once). The chair itself is very comfortable and moves around really easily. Here are the only two gripes I can think of: Sometimes I wish it could raise a couple more inches, and the sizeable tray on the base becomes an additional place where tools and takeoff hardware accumulate! But that's obviously only a problem because I'm sometimes bad at putting things away...

Good feedback. Thanks.

Based on that, I think yours (?) is a winner. I generally wish mine was shorter and the tray is pretty much par for the course.

Traxion 2-700


This one is also interesting...

The rolling mechanics stool is the greatest thing ever invented. I picked up a cheap o from Amazon and I find it indispensable. Seeing Tarik’s makes me want to upgrade.

I went ahead and ordered the Traxion stool above. My *** just can't handle any more time on the (literal) plank of wood my old stool uses.

Also ordered a couple other toys that will come into play once the bike is "done".

Yup, that's the one I have. I think it's more comfortable than a plank!

Funny... Seeing your FXR sometimes makes me feel the same way...
