Bert2006 Posted June 26, 2014 #1 Posted June 26, 2014 The Motorcycle jack will be on sale at CND Tire next week. Its the 1500lbs ones and they will be around $80.
XV1100SE Posted June 26, 2014 #2 Posted June 26, 2014 ...would be this one - http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/motomaster-motorcycle-jack-1500-lbs-0091015p.html#.U6xCRZRdXTo In the past they've put it on for 1/2 price or $65
KeithR Posted June 26, 2014 #3 Posted June 26, 2014 Keep in mind this a newer style jack....I have both.....the top arms are not as long as the old style. If you are using a Carbon One style lift they don't work very well. I ended up taking the jack from the new one and putting it on the old one. Not much difference but I didn't feel comfortable using it with the shorter arms. I'm sure they could be modified. Keith
Nemo Posted June 26, 2014 #4 Posted June 26, 2014 The ad doesn't list the length of the arms. Check that out before you buy. They should be at least about an inch longer that the width of your frame.
XV1100SE Posted June 27, 2014 #5 Posted June 27, 2014 Anyone that has come over to do some work on their 2nd Gen at my place know I'm careful using my Canadian Tire lift. The pads extend across the width of the lift adapter...but that is about it. You have to make sure the front of the pads are against the stopper on the left side of the adapter. I also find that you need to use the lock because the hydraulic will slip slowly and lower the bike. Still... good price for a lift.
paysaw Posted June 27, 2014 #6 Posted June 27, 2014 I bought mine on sale last year when it was 69.00.Still a good deal.The rubber pads do come off though.My only complaint.
KeithR Posted June 27, 2014 #7 Posted June 27, 2014 On the new style the arms are 11-3/4" long vs 13-1/8" on the old style Keith
Wizard765 Posted June 27, 2014 #8 Posted June 27, 2014 that is a significant difference.. I know they are a little expensive but I've been looking at the J&S Jack. It appears to be an amazing product. Does anyone have experience with this particular jack? ($400)
