Bike jacks

I think I would still use Jack stands under the rear axles as an added precaution even if I had the adapter,. Pitbull is a nice jack though. It has a larger base than any other jack I looked at. Plus it raises the bike higher than J&S. You can also use the drain pans on the cross bars like J&S advertises. If you catch them at a Rally, you can get a cheaper price.
 
I'm thinking it was at most 40 bucks. Don't really remember. Once you slide the lift is under the frame, you have to insert the adapter over the lift rail, and it has rubber pads (like the lift rails do) and supports the frame up behind/under the transmission.
Found out they want 59 bucks now for the Tri Glide adapter..
 
Thats a little price increase from 3 years ago as I recall. All I know is I can still use a really good bike jack where as without the adapter, it would be a giant paper weight.

as long as you say it works just like lifting a two wheeler with the adapter then its worth for me and not having to buy more equipment for my garage I dont have the room..

Sounds like a good excuse to build a bigger garage:D. I started running out of room so I started building this over the summer, built it big enough my dad can back his enclosed trailer into it.

That looks kinda small for my needs (LOL)and I dont have the room for a larger garage at this point. I know when I move someday it will have a garage that will have all my toys.lifts,tools,cars, bikes etc all in one place. I sure like to dream big...

That sure is a nice garage you have and all your toys too..
 
Outstanding Garage....I could use that scissor lift !!!

The only thing I cant do with my PitBull lift now is I cant use the revolving turntable I used on it with my two wheel Ultra classic. I had to take that turntable off. But other than that, I use it just as I used to. I do use the D-Rings to stablize the TriGlide when removing the rear wheels etc.

I be happy to get my trike to lift at a comforable level, my aching body cant move that low these days to well..

The turntable attachment I can live without..

I will probably order one up soon and see how well it works and maybe even one for my Dad..
