RE: Motorcycle lift for Dyna???
Pep Boys and Harbor Freight Tools both have a lift that sells for about $60 but you need an adapter (for Dyna models)so that thejack lifts the bike under the frame and not the motor. J&P cycles has one, but you should be able to makeyour own adapterrelatively easily.

Ok, my bud down in Florida told me he bought his at Sears for less than $150, then purchase the rail guards from Harley for around $30. This should be the ticket.

I have the harbor frieght jack and the Harley rail guides. It works okay, but you have to lean the bike from side to side to get the guides in.I think the lower profile jack that I saw at the dealer the other day would be the ticket! It's not on wheels, but looks cheaper and much smaller.I don't roll by bike around anyway when it's on the jack. I also had to modify the HF jack to clear the kickstand.

Bite the bullet and spring for the J&S jack. You'll never regret the extra $$$ spent in the long run. It slides easily under my Dyna LowRider and doesn't need the adapters. Also, it is very stable at any height and I have let the bike down so slow it almost appears it is not moving and itshould last for years. This is just my opinion, but I don't think I want to lift a $20K bike on a $100 jack.

I second the J&S jack. You have thousands tied uup in your ride; don't bleed over the $350 +/- for the jack. I got one last week and it is great,plus it arrived in three days. There is no assembly requiredand itslides under the frame of my Dyna perfectly without any adapters.And, most importantly, it liftsvery easily and quickly.. It has mechanical locks that keep it in place at five or six different positions and is very stable. In fact, its most stable position is fully extended. Once it is up, you can move the bike practically with one hand.
