The Red one its always the red one. In two weeks it will be the red one again.... but then again half the people will say the yellow one. I use the red on although you have to stand theRoad Kingup I have never had any problems with thinking it would fall off of the jack.

I agree, the J&S is worth every penny.
Buy a good one and you will never be sorry. Buy a cheap one and who knows.....

RE: what jack is the right jack
I had a cheaper jack and never felt comfortable with my road king on it. I then bought a PitBull jack, which is a lot more money, but I never worry about a bike on it. Had my wife's deluxe on it for about two months while I was waiting on heads and never had the slightest worry about it. Like they say, you get what you pay for.

I have the yellow craftsman, I am happy with it. It is made of aluminum, which makes it lighter than the red... I have rolled my rk custom around the garage without any issues, and even hauled my fat butt up on the bike, while it was in the air... It does wobble, but for the amount of time I use it, it is fine....

Anyway...... spent some time going back-n-forth with J&S ..... their product is portable, allows stability with both wheels removed and stows nicely. It is a bit expensive @ $426 (delivered) but ya gotta love the high Canadian dollar right now. I'm ordering mine shortly.

RE: what jack is the right jack
I got my red one from a friend for 50 bucks also and have had no problems. I used it three times yesterday and once this morning also. I am sure there are better options; but I think it was worth the money.
