What do you want to know?
I have one of those scissor jacks but it is plated and isn't called a "Black Widow. I've had it for years and it came from that website.
Works great and is priced right. Anyone that pays more for one of those is a fool.

Would this work for just getting the bike to stand straight up for service reasons? ( oil changes)

I just got one of these from them:

It does the job, plenty strong so I trust it can hold the weight...nothing fancy. I need it to hold the bike level that allows me to get underneath it to do my Scavenger oil changes. Does just what I need it to...I can get under it with pans etc.

I have the BlackJack 1000 lb. lift, and find it a very useful with it's 16-1/4" lift capability. I use it in conjunction with a Condor Wheel Chock. The BlackJack lift includes a larger plate that attaches to the top of the lift to give it a wider surface area. I like the fact that it has a jack screw instead of a hydraulic pump.
