Appreciate the imput from all. Thought about it last night and considering the cost of the RCI, my storage issue and reading as much as I could on every jack on the market, I ordered a jack from J&S this morning.
I had already ordered the Pro jack from sears but they sent me a "stool" instead of the jack ??? Had a hassle trying to get answers as to why and the return process. Kind of ticked me off.
I have to lay the King up for the winter so I like the locking positions on the J&S, also the stability at full height. Supposed to roll easy with the large wheels and I am going to have to roll it into some pretty cramped space so it will be out of the way (garage already packed with 2 cars, gun safe, log splitter, snow blower, snow plow, freezer, lawn mower, work bench. You get the idea, 10 gallons in a 5 gallon can).
Think I picked what is gonna work for me. Costs more but the piece of mind is worth it. If it seems stable enough, figure I will be able to start the bike over the winter and allow it to idle for a while, pump some oil through her...Guess time will tell !

Again, thanks to all who took the time to answer....
Crash.

I guess...if your dumb enough to not tie it down, or use the lock on the jack once you have it jacked up!

You can't beat a lift table....I use my neighbors all the time

But I needed another jack.....looked at JS, but I'm leaning towards the Sears Pro Yellow.

These threads are almost as good as the OIL threads.
