Just trade up to the yellow one, it's well worth the $80 extra when it's on sale. You can slide the jack under the bikeand position it when it's on the Jiffy stand and it weighs half as much. Why go super cheap on the jack for a 20K + bike, doesn't make any sense for $80 more.

When I had my XL1200c I had the red one and had to run it up on a 2x4 to get under it...at least get Ole Yellar...

I have a J&S jack and while it's more expensive I love it and have no problems with stability or clearance with my Street Glide.

I position my jack on that rear crossmember, I have to pull the bike up strait and it'll go,
I have the Harbor Freight one.. works OK for me....

I have the same jack. I trimmed the rubber strip on the L/H side to fit the crossmember, width wise. I just side the jack up until it stops and I straighten the bike and slides right under.

The Sears lift arm not fitting in the crossmember is the reason why I took back the one that I bought. I found a lift at Northern that fits in crossmember, lifts the bike 1.5" higher, and has a wider and longer base for better stability.
