The HF high lift jack is very good for servicing motorcycles.
I have used it on the Ultra, Dyna, Softail and Sportster. Have to rig something up for the Buell.
I paid $129 for it when it was on sale and a 20% off coupon. Retail is $169 I think. But there is always a sale and or coupon from HF. Never pay retail at HF.

Do you own one of these? Price looks great, but don't see much talk about them and do they fit dynas without mods?

Actually, getting serious again - I have one of those HF scissor lifts - it's a bitch to get it under the bike as it is...and even when I do, the bike isn't straight-up when I lift it. Anyone have a fix for this?

always used a lever type lift that I made. Found a jack last summer at a garage sale for $35.00 no name, but look like a J+S but its red (no name). Had to cut 3, 2"x3"'s to fit under my dyna, but what the hell, I only use it 2-3 times a year. Put my money somewhre else.

Have the Sears jack and do not like it. Wish I'd have done some research first, but bought it years before I knew about the Forum. Would spend a little more on a better fix. The HF and J&S jacks look like much better options. If I could find a lift table at a reasonable price, I'd buy that. Living in AK, shipping is too much for any of them.

The J&S looks pretty compact. For those of us who dont have a garage to keep stuff in, how easy is it to either leave in my SUV or carry it up to my condo unit (at least I have an elevator).
Or is there any other compact jack that is reasonably stable?
Thanks,
Don
