I bought mine used on this forum and it's been great. Very easy to install and works like a charm. Most of the time I drive off after using it. I always make sure the surface is level before engaging the stand so I don't have any stability issues.
Wish I would of checked on this very forum before I bought mine from HD.Not as easy too install and when you adjust the pads to raise wheel off the ground its pretty hard too lift .Not to mention the price $300 on average.Oh well.It is definably a solid stand.
I've had one for the past 3 years, great item, really saves space in garage, watch out for speed bumps and do not use on a forward incline, they can be knocked off w/o much effort, rest of the time I love mine and recommend to anyone.
How well does it work with a bike jack? I barely have room for the jack on my Ultra without anything else hanging beneath it. I have to put a 2x4 under the jiffy stand just to use the jack.

Thats what I was wondering about the Street Glide, my jack just clears now, concerned about anything that would go lower then the frame.
Pretty sure he meant EZ UP and noe OFF. Really like mine, have had it on both my last two Ultras. One bad thing though..it wont work with the J and S jack. But recently talked with J/S and they are to be working on a adaptor to hook up the two.
Mine worked great for about 6 months then, for reasons unknown, it became very unstable. I can no longer trust it; even on a level hard surface it will fall off to the side for no reason.

I got the J&S because of the stand. Rod said to put the bike on the kick stand and use a 3/4" board on the front leg of the jack. Put the rear leg of the jack against the folded up legs of the EZup. It works like a charm and is as steady as you'd ever hope it to be.
