Mostly I am a pretty fit age 61 but I do find that bending around to weird angles like when I am cleaning my Fatboy is more uncomfortable than when I was 20.
So I'm looking for the very best lift (within reasonable cost limits) to raise up the Fatboy in the garage.
I want a lift that is very stable and that I can just roll under the Fatboy and jack up with no hassle and no drama. I want quality -- not looking to pinch pennies. I would like to be able to jack the bike up while it is on the Jiffy stand. Otherwise it takes two to do it -- one to hold the bike vertical and one to work the jack. Don't want that.
Basically I would like a jack that I can roll under the bike when it is on the kickstand, and jack the bike up. A really good lift.
Can you elevate the bike as from when it is on the jiffy stand? I agree that this does appear to be what I am looking for and the price seems fine.
I have a Fatboy Lo and I'm assuming my bike sits lower than yours. With my J&S jack I have to take some weight off the jiffy stand to get the jack under the one side. It's nothing difficult or strenuous though. Again, you likely have more ground clearance than I do and should be fine raising and lowering with the jiffy out.
