Default Me 2 but more $

I bought the Aluminum colored one made of Aluminum for a guess-ta-mate of $140 ~ 150 a few years ago. Good for dragging the bike around but the lower bikes need a ramp or blocks to load which is a PIA. As far as working, no issues. It looks kind of like this one.

  • 1500 lb. maximum lift capacity
  • 4-1/2" minimum, 19" maximum height (with extensions)
  • Lightweight 46 lbs.
  • Extra wide base for stability
  • Rubber grip pads protect motorcycle frame

Thumbs up

I have the HF jack as well. And like a lot of others on here, I got it for $59.00 two years ago. It's been great. No issues, Bike sat on it for over 2 months this winter with no worries. I've always had good luck with HF hydraulics. Bottle jacks, floor jacks, cherry pickers, etc. Now I'm thinking about getting their lift table but I'm waiting for it to go on sale. Yeah, I know, it's already low priced, but they could do better.

07 Ultra, have had one for over a year, used several times works great. The only thing that I did to mine was take an angle grinder and grind off the tacks that held the two round "stops" on the end you slde under the bike so that I could get it under the bike with it on the Jiffy stand. I can now get it in place and then straighten up the bike and jack it up by myself.

When I buy mine (when I need a new front tire) I'll buy an AMERICAN Jack. I am not a senior citizen socialist.
