I trust my jiffy stand so much if I had a remote start I would start my bike from my living room,because it's always in neutral if parked in the garage. And first start of the day always warm up for a minute or two to get the oil flowing. Now I know I said OIL not trying to start a oil thread.....lol.

 

Just because of force of habit, I am always sitting on my bike when I hit the button.
I live in Florida, so I would never have to Gear Up oh, except for my little **** bucket beanie.
one thing I never ever do... If I am moving my bike around in the garage or driveway, I never walk it unless I'm straddling it and then I walk with it. Makes me nervous when I see people pushing their bike standing on one side holding onto the handlebars very easy to let it fall over on the other side.

 

Crap, thread resurrection got me

 

Me to, but its winter.

 

So, uh what oil do you use to keep the jiffy stand smoothly operating?

 

Personally I'm glad to see a trend towards acceptance of tread resurrections. I'm bored, I'm here to read some threads about bikes. The subject is the same no matter the age of the thread and since it's unlikely I've read the previous answers before, it's just more to read.

 

Well I use the HD oil in the little pen like squeeze tube,what else would you use?

 

On my bicycle Kickstand I use regular old 10w30....damn I just can't help it. I'm gonna turn this into a oil thread.....

 

If that makes you nervous, the last 30 seconds of this video will give you a heart attack. Keep in mind the guy is 5'6", 140 lbs.

 

Harley has called them Jiffy Stands longer than this thread has been around. Longer than probably everyone here has been riding.
