Those lifts are always on sale for $99. While your at walmart tomorrow buy a motorcycle magazine for $3-$6 with a HF coupon page in it for the lift should be able to get the lift with one for $62-$75 and save ya some $ for gas

My roadie runs best on crown royal and coke!
Saw wally world had quacker state 20w50 here for 4 bucks a qt. and filter for 7$. I don't know if that is any help or not?
I used my car floor jack and a piece of wood to get my bike up and then blocked it with wood to change my front tire.

Probably a little late to mention this but I always plug a tire with it on the ground. The rasp takes a little effort and the plug also and the wheel moves if it's off the ground. I always just roll the bike so the spot is where I need it and go to work.
The 2X8 jack is great for changing the oil because it isn't in the way of the drain plugs like the motorcycle jacks are.

I have the Aluminum M/C jack from HF, best money on a jack I ever spent! On a day like that, (and I've had a few myself) I always call my good friend Gentleman Jack over to show my friend Jim Beam and I some Southern Comfort.

8.99 for a synthetic isn't a bad price. What are you running that's cheaper? I pay 8.99 for mob 20/50 ay wallys.

So, got up this morning, knowing I had a nail in my rear tire, and after talking with the awesome guy's on RSC, had decided to plug the tire, thus needing a jack, and a good excuse to buy one, so off to Harbor Freight I go, I'm thinking, Jack, get Mobil 1 V-twin oil, filter, magnetic plug, and pick up some oil for the wifes Sport Trac, cause its due!
Harbor Freight, had 13 jacks in stock, grab one, and a set of metric hex sockets, get to the counter, and the bag-o-shit behind the counter says, we are only taking cash! I'm like WTF, I don't carry cash, I use debit, or credit card, he says, our card readers are down, there is an ATM down the street!!
I won't repeat what I said next, probably get me band, but the store manager did apologize for the employees attitude!!
I called another Harbor Freight, and they are even worse off, their cash register's had crashed too...
So, I'm think Autozone, for oil, filters, magnetic plug, Oh hell no, the Autozone store I knew of was torn down and gone!?!?!, So I'm thinking Baxters Auto parts, down the road some....holly crap, talk about sticker shock!! And the only V-Twin oil they had was Valvoline...not going there!!
I was going to pick up some 5W30 Mobil 1 Syn. oil, yeah right!!! 8.99 a qrt.!! So, I will try again tomorrow, different places, Wally World is on the tour stop...Came home empty handed, poured a Bourbon and coke....mostly Bourbon!!
+1 on the whiskey.....
