Anyone using a J&S motorcycle lift or a Pitbull lift? Wanting to buy one, not sure which one. Pros and cons if you have either of them

I don't know anything about the J&S but I have a friend who has a pitbull lift and I have had my bike on it. It's an amazing lift! expensive, but what a lift!

I have a J&S jack I bought several years ago:

Great jack no complaints well built and no worries when the bike is all the way up.
You won't be sorry if you choose this one.

I have had both. Had a J&S for a couple years and then when I decided to go air assist I sold it and bought Pitbull. You really can't go wrong with either jack. The Pitbull lifts a little higher but it's footprint is larger, if you have the space for it that's not a problem. I really like the 360 degree turntable I got for the pitbull, gets the jack completely out of the way in regard to access to the bike. I got bad knees, air assist is a Godsend.

Search is your friend. Lots of threads and replies on this over the years, and it doesn't matter if it's a Rushmore or not. ;-) What they all say is they are all good and don't forget the Harbor Freight & Sears versions. Oh, or why don't you want the table lift? Sorry, couldn't resist. personally, J&S.
