As another replied, I put mine on a lift (J&S Jack) every time I put it away after each ride......BUT, I do so because I need to park it along side of the back wall in my garage. It's very difficult to maneuver into that position by hand, but once up, on an easy rolling lift, I can push it sideways against the wall and still park 2 cars in the same garage. So I really use the lift for that purpose.....nothing else really.

My Road King spent the winter on a lift/jack because I was working on it (new handlebars, cables, etc.). It took 4 months of intermittent work to finish due to work travel and kids. Other than that, I've never kept a cruiser off the ground. I do, however, keep my sportbike on paddock stands but, it's not to keep it from developing flat spots on the tires or anything. It's only to keep it tight against the wall in the garage.

I hang my Road King on a set of hooks screwed into the wall, right next to the bicycle, leaves extra floor space in the garage.
And no more flat spots on the tire, man, I was getting them all the time before I started hanging the bike up (the nitrogen in the tires helps a lot too).
I also put the battery tender on, even if the bike will only be shut off for 5 minutes.

Thank you all for the overwhelming love 😂 and roast session. I genuinely was Curious as I tend to try and take care of my belongings the best I can and make my stuff last. No for financial reason I just like taking care of stuff. Eh maybe it’s excessive but time will tell.
Side note:: I also don’t put it on there religiously but if I know I can’t ride for a couple weeks or more I’ll throw it on there.
