I have the aluminum atv jack from HF... it lifts my bike with no issues.... Got it on sake with a 20% off coupon (back of a popular mechanics magazine)for $59.99. I use it pretty regularly.

The one you're talking about is pretty similar to the yellow one no? But in aluminum. And it's like 175.00 right now. Or is it a different one?

I've got that exact yellow jack from Harbor Freight, and I love it.

I was really disappointed when I tired to use it on my 97 Suzuki Bandit 1200S, because the oil pan dips down so low, I couldn't get a flat surface to jack the bike up properly... But my new Stryker is a completely different story. It sits perfectly flush on the bottom of the frame, and raises it up to a nice working height. It's very stable. No chance of it "accidentally" falling over. Also works perfectly on my wife's Boulevard S50.

Don't ever pay full price for it. You can find a 20% off coupon in dozens of places. I got mine for $80 brand new.

Thanx blackvapor. It's obvious you have some feedback on this item since you have it, and you use it for the stryker which is exactly what I was looking for. That's all I needed. I'm picking it up today thanx!!!

I bought that one once. Had a bum bottle jack out of the box. I took it back.

I have one that looks just like it, but red. The top rails are too short to reach across the frame. It kind of worked a couple times, then the bottle jack died... Mine was from Kragen..

Yes... mine is kinda gold and silver aluminum... BUT it was nowhere near $175.00!! HOLY COW!!! I just saw it on the website... Must of had mine grossly mis-marked!!

Well I just came from my local HF store and I must say that their customer service is not the greatest. These guys had the jack for $99.99 plus tax, when online was 89.99. Well I showed the store manager the online price on my phone, and he said that the only thing he could do is match it, but my other 20% discount wouldn't apply. So I was pretty much looking @ 95 bucks out the door and tax, so I went to HF.com and they had it for $89.99 plus my 20% I end up paying $85 bucks shipped to my home. I can't believe that being the same company they wouldn't walk by the arm with the online store anyways I should be expecting my new jack sometime next week. I'm eager to lift my bike and do my regular tune ups myself, since shops want an arm and a leg. Thanx everybody for feeding my question and helping me decide for this jack.

;D :-\ hey guys me again. Shhhhht man, I found this jack at my local Craigslist. Guy wants $75 but he said "it might be negotiable" hahahah I think that sounds good no??? I had already order the one from HF.com but I can just call and cancel the order if necessary. What you guys think abut this one for.......maybe 50-55 bucks????

That craftsman jack is the same as the one I got from harbor freight, only difference is the color, different name on the rubber pads, and the price. Lol
