Default hydraulic lift

I need to get a moto-Jack soon and have been looking at different types and brands. I was wondering what everyone on here is using.

Do you have one and if so what kind/brand are you using??

Lots of folks swear by the J&S Jack...expensive but so is your bike. Many comments pro and con for the cheapo red Sears jack and the Pep Boys Torin red jack. Some have good luck for infrequent use. The Sears web site is peppered with negative comments about their red jack, butsome find it just fine. The Sears yellow jack gets more favorable comments. You get what you pay for.
