I have no experience with this one.

But stay away from the Larin line of jacks. I've had them replace the bottle on the jack three times...two within the first or second use.

Nothing more frustrating then raising the bike only to find the bottle jack will stick in the up position. Try lifting a 900 lb bike off a jack

J&S works good for me. It`s built wider which gives it stability. The other jacks look small after you get one. I can use it to change tires on my Benz too (had to give it an initiation).

J&S all the way, I put the King on it and push it all around the garage with no tie downs, works great. I also have the sears aluminum yellow jack and it works good also.

Just depends on how muich you are willing to spend.

Had the red Sears for years, works great. Left it for my son-in-law when I moved and had the JS waiting on me here when I arrived. I am very happy with the JS....much easier to move around once bike is up and a bit steadier then ol'red IMO.

If the $'s are tight I would not hesitate on the Sears red, but I do like the JS better. n8dc is dead-on......you can find countless threads in here on the "debate."
