slick97spirit Posted April 24, 2009 #1 Posted April 24, 2009 Larry, just wanted to show off your product for everyone to see "In Action" Worked great, very pleased. Well made, I can't say enough good things about it. Any of you guys thinking about this piece of equipment, you should go ahead and pull the trigger. The 2nd Gen on a lift is a scarey, wobbly experience. Put that big heavy thing on this adapter and she's rock solid.
N3FOL Posted April 24, 2009 #2 Posted April 24, 2009 The adapter is really very useful and definitely stable when on legs. A lot of members had removed their rear tire only and did maintenance on their bike while on the adapter. As an added precaution, I leave the jack right under the adapter for my peace of mind.
Dave77459 Posted April 24, 2009 #3 Posted April 24, 2009 I put Roxie on the adapter for whatever work I do, or even when I am cleaning her. Takes very little time and cuts way down on the backaches. The legs make changing oil a snap, since the drain pan goes right underneath without the lift in the way. I guess I ought to take more photos, especially of the "mod" I did that makes putting the legs in WAY faster for me.
Condor Posted April 24, 2009 #4 Posted April 24, 2009 OK, will it work on a 1stGen?? I have the jack and the adapter plate, but never used them because of my vivid imagination.....
Squidley Posted April 25, 2009 #5 Posted April 25, 2009 OK, will it work on a 1stGen?? I have the jack and the adapter plate, but never used them because of my vivid imagination..... No it wont Jack, it's setup to the frame dimentions of the G2
Condor Posted April 25, 2009 #6 Posted April 25, 2009 No it wont Jack, it's setup to the frame dimentions of the G2 NERTZ!!!!!
Carbon_One Posted April 25, 2009 #7 Posted April 25, 2009 Sorry Condor, stricly a 2nd gen option as Squidley says. Dave looking forward to seeing what mod you've come up with to adding the legs quicker. Thanks for the good words Slick. Glad to have another happy customer. Larry
slick97spirit Posted May 20, 2009 Author #8 Posted May 20, 2009 Larry, Been toying around with this a little. This is what I came up with. It's a little easier and quicker for me & can be done with one hand. Just a suggestion. By the way. Been getting the bike ready for a trip. So much easier to do sitting on your product. Great job.
Carbon_One Posted May 20, 2009 #9 Posted May 20, 2009 Yep those linch pins work great. Several others have added them to their lift adapters. I haven't done so with the kits as to keep costs down. Thou I supply a bolt and nut I only use a bolt myself. Just slip it in place while the bike is in the air. On getting ready to raise the bike off the stand I pull all the bolts first and then raise the bike enough till the legs drop out of the way. Larry
