I was really surprised to see how bad the reviews were on the red one because I have one and it works fine.
I will say that if I get another I'll pop for the yellow one.
PS If someone has a red one he wants to pay me to take, I'll take it.

Well, intead of advertising it as a 'jack', call it a boat anchor. They cost more 'round here. 
J/K (But boat anchors do cost more here)
Yea, 30-40 if someone wants/needs it.
Finally making the move to a J&S?
Or so frustrated, not gonna work on it anymore?

I have one my dad gave me. I've never used it on a bike, cause I didn't have a bike last year. I needed a way to get the transmission installed in my lifted Jeep without it landing on my head. That jack is awesome for that job. It also was great for axle swaps on the jeep. I can put it under the rear axle of the YJ and pick the whole thing up in the air if I work on the back section. I have put that thing to some good use.
You can kinda see mine under the back of the YJ and the front is supported on stands and blocks.

Ive used the red jack for about 2 years now with no problems except the high clearance and getting the jack under the bike. In trying to solve the clearance problem, I purchased the yellow jack on sale and intended to give the red jack to a friend. In my opinion the yellow jacks are the crappy ones. After trying two yellow jacks and taking them both back, I decided to keep the red one. I finally solved the clearance problem and am a happy camper.
