SubscriberI have recently purchased and 04 Raider and I am looking for a Jackstand so that I can get it off the ground, move it and do repairs. I know that there is Craftsmans.

AdministratorSuggest you shop a bit….there are bargains. The trick is, no matter which platter you go for, you’ll need to set up a bit of a ramp for your front tire, (and rear if need be), elevated so that the jack will clear. Most jacks come with a rubber liner on the lift arms…I like to add some carpet pad for the right reasons. The lifts really are a fine addition…..puttin’ a shine on is way easier. 😎

AdministratorSame here.Craftsman has done me fine for ages.I only lift the bike enough to turn the forks.And,I have to stand the bike up straight to push the jack under it.
DO NOT buy the newer version Sears sells,its not very stable.I bought one a couple years ago,and after putting my 02 Heritage Springer on it…..I put it back in the box and returned it.Get the older style red/black with the screw down stabilizers on it.Good stand for the $$$$loop-single-reply.php
