I use the red craftsman on my Limited. Always on the lift and plugged in to the battery tender when not on the road.

It really depends on how much you want to spend.
Pitbull and a few more are more costy but much more stable.
I use a harbor freight and a red sears that work prety good. I do want to get either the Harbor freight aluminum or sears yellow jack.

I've had the J&S Jack for 5 years. Works great, very sturdy and is good for storing the bike off the wheels for winter.

+1 on the J&S. The sturdiest and most stable jack on the planet.

Don't know much of anything about the jack you're asking about at J&P. Looks similar to the Sears Red jack only different color. I looked long and hard at Sears, both flavors and the HF. In the end, I saved up my money and bought the J&S. I'll never have to buy another jack and this thing is a beast. There is no flex or wobble at all. I use it nearly every day since my garage is tight and it makes more room for the significant other to get in and out. Not to mention easier to clean and inspect the scooter. I can't say enough good about the J&S. I'd buy it again without hesitating.

J&S is well worth the money . If your bike is to low you can cut 3 pieces of 2x12 wood and drive up on them and use the other for the kickstand then the jack will slide under ,works great

I just picked up a J&s yesterday from a member here to augment my table lift. The selling point for me was watching the guy's wife spin an 800 pound bike around in a little confined space like she was moving a kitchen chair. You aren't doing that with a HF lift...
