Re: What kind of motorcycle jack are you using?

I do 90% harleys and this works great. Only issue I ever have is rigid frames, they tend to be a bit lower and this won't fit under them. Don't plan on using this on sportbikes though, it will shatter the bottom of your fairings.

Re: What kind of motorcycle jack are you using?

Update:
I ended up getting a Harbor Freight ATV / Motorcycle jack this week. Found a killer coupon in a motorcycle magazine. Anyway, last night I got to try it out and it lifted my bike right up. My engine hangs a little below the frame so I thought that was going to be a problem but it wasn't. Lifted the bike right up and felt very secure. Before I go to take the wheels off this weekend I'll strap the bike to the jack to make sure it stays secure once the wheels come off. I'll try and remember to take some pictures.

My bike's been sitting on the jack with both tires off for 3 days now and no troubles, knock on wood.

Got the wheels off and back on without any jack troubles. It's a good jack for the price I think.
