I'm a cheap *** ***** and I ponied up for one. Worth every cent to lift a 900 piece of metal safely up and off the ground with confidence....and for extended periods of time. Over the winter, I had my RGU on the lift for almost 4 weeks straight when a overseas business trip interrupted a suspension upgrade project.

I also use it all the time for general care and maintenance for both a dyna and bagger.

I used my new J & S jack for the first time today. Not too much trouble putting the jack together--took about 20 minutes to assemble. I cannot say enough about this jack. It is fantastic! It works just as advertised and rolls so smoothly on my garage floor with the bike on it. The bike was so stable when lifted. VERY, VERY PLEASED! I highly recommend this to anyone thinking about buying a motorcycle jack.

Be nice if the DOLLY would have four caster wheels which would allow the bike to be pushed forward and backward. That's my only complaint about the jack, the bike cant be pushed forward or backward which would help for my garage layout

I got the air operated one. It works like a champ and so easy to use. Just wish they where giving out oil pan adapters with the purchase of the jack. I guess you cant have everything. Great product, great people.

J&S was the first thing I ordered when I got my bike. I had to modify one of the holes in the bottle jack with a dremel to get the bolt to seat properly. I was slightly annoyed I had to modify a 400 dollar jack right out of the box, but it works great. They offered to send me another bottle jack but I declined. I leave my bike on the jack most all the time when I'm not riding it. Great piece of equipment.
