                I don't think that sears jack would be very useful on bikes like ours, with underslung pipes and all.
                Maybe for a Harley with side mounted pipes and easy access to the frame.

                  Does anyone use this lift for a gs750L or related bike? Id hate to buy just to return it.

                    I picked up one used but "like new" for my 81 GS750E and it works fine. Well thought out lift. Will do 1500lbs. They used to cost quite a bit more last year. Especially useful if you don't have the center stand anymore.

                        I bought one from Pep Boys and I have no problem with the pipes or anything else getting in the way while using it. Just remember to tie the bike down to the jack so it doesn't fall off while its up in the air!

                          I've had a Pep Boys one for 5 months and I'm still working on making a device so that it lifts the bike by the frame instead of by the exhaust.

                            I wouldnt bother with that kind... the center stand works fine for that... but if anyone has a lead on a REALLY CHEAP table lift, THAT would work well!\\/

                              problem is a cheap table lift is not in my budget. either is this one. I am very poor this winter. but I need something. This would make moving the bike around very easy in my basement. plus it will raise it another foot and a half of the floor making the work on the engine alot easier on my back and knees. I think I just talked myself into trying it. My pipes are coming off the bike for the winter anyway. Thanks for the replies they did help.
