Hey guys,

Just bought a bike jack, one of the flat plated ones, and wanting to be able to lift my Sporty up to be able to clean the the wheels and such easier, just not sure where the best place to lift the bike is? anyone had any experience? or suggestions?

I've had a look myself and the rubber stopper for the stand seems to be in the way and also the stand itself!

 

I had to bolt two 4x2's of pine across the top of mine and I had to cut bits of wood away mainly for the stand rubber so that the bike was good and stable and i could line it up easy.

We do reply Retsurht, I have worked it out thanks everyone, just had to position the jack just right and up it goes. Thanks for all your advice!

This is the lift that I have

 

 

Sorry about the poor picture but gives u the idea,  I dont use the pegs when I lift the bike, I will try and get some pics of it on the stand when I get the time

I agree with using the pegs, but the rubber stopper on the rail is longer than the pegs so it lifts on that instead which doesn't seem right either!

The rubber stopper for the jiffy stand, here's a picture if that helps, it seems that i may need taller pegs?  If I move the lift anymore towards the front of the bike the stand is in the way, sorry about the poor quality phone picture, but gives u the idea.
