NON-Sears Jack
Now, I know this subject has been 'round the block at least once, maybe twice.[
]But another post popped up with the Sears jack qwestshun.I posted this in there, but beings how many of yous gize (and gals) are a li'l burnt out on that subject, thought I'd add it fresh. Check it out. It is for real. We own 2 of them. One word- AWESOME. When you play the video, believe them. The bike is NOT tied down. Costs more than a SEARS, but I wouldn't put my, my buddy's or YOUR 15-30K ride on a 100 dollar jack. Heck, Harley will sell you a doodad for your StreetGlide for more than a decent jack will set you back. And it sux to see that $250 doodad mangled when the bike dipsy doodles off the jack, while you are hooking up the tie downs. Seen it happen more than once, THANK God it wasn't here or one of mine.

Oh yea, if you are fortunate to catch them at a show or event, they usually run a H*ll of a special, and a bonus, no shipping.
BIG downside-they don't come in YELLOW

RE: NON-Sears Jack
I've looked at those before, and I do need a new lift eventually.
I can't remember the name of the company or lift, but there is one on the market that has the same stability, but it's a screw-type lift and doesn't stick out to the right side of the bike quite so far. I'll find it again eventually.

RE: NON-Sears Jack
Yea, there arealot of happy J&S jack owners here including myself but there are also many happyyellow and red jack owners.
I ordered mine online @$360 delivered. I thought it was a bit pricey but I don't regret the purchase. What sold me was the stability of the jack and the fact that you can jack the bike up from the kick stand position. Plus no straps are needed.Ifigured these features were worth the extra cost over the yellow one.
