Guest jerroldt Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 I have one of those heavy telescoping bike jacks that roll on wheels with a small hydraulic jack attached. I have used it to hoist an Electraglide high off the ground and move it around in the garage for cleaning and maintenance. I can't see why it won't work with the Le Mans unless there is some reason why the rear wheel and suspension shouldn't come down to the max. It is not a quick bike jack but for maintence etc. it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_roethlisberger Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Heya, ...sure, in theory it should work, as others have used ATV/Jet-Ski/Motorcycle jacks from Craftsman, etc... with the V11 Sport/LeMans. What you have to be careful of is that the jack has broad lifting surfaces that can spread the weight of the bike around the oil-pan, and/or along the edges... versus concentrating the full weight of the bike in a small location centered in the pan. If you do the latter, you risk cracking the pan. And of course, we have our new Shop Stand FAQ al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
