Default Lift Jack

Does anyone have any feedback or experience with the new MAL-2C motorcycle lift from motorcyclejacks.com? I'm shopping for a lift that can be moved around in my garage so I can park both my car and bike inside.

I've never seen it before but this fits my needs. My bike is lowered and so far, I haven't found a lift that will fit under it.

Is it made by Laren? Seems thats the jack I have. It fits great under my lowered WG. So far so good. Works under my lower Nighttrain as well. Very good for the price.

Here's where I got mine..http://www.mygaragestore.com/detail.aspx?ID=1002

I recently purchased a J&S jack, and it is an excellent quality jack that requires no straps, nor any plastic shims etc when used on dyna family bikes. Once the bike is jacked up you can roll it around wherever you want to with no worries about the bike falling off.Very good quality product.
