I know supercheap auto sel an atv jack similar to the first clip, haven't tried it and can't remember the price but I know it wasn't too expensive and I don't know if it was their brand or another just remember seeing it while I was looking for something else.

IB bikelifts in Gateshead NSW. $399. Best one I've used/seen, Aussie design as well. They have a website. Lifts a dresser without raising a sweat.

look's good to me Jim . I would be interested in one, so look forward to your update.
I thought I would mention , I have used bike stands on my own on Harley big twins no issues. I would first line up the stand beside your bike, get on your knee's, so you can get a good view where it is going under the bike and when it will support both sides. you get hold of one handle bar grip with one hand, get bike straight up and off jiffy stand, takes very little effort to keep a bike up when you have hold on one handle bar grip. then push the stand under it with the other hand. once under and how you want it, still holding the handle bar, stand up and raise stand so it is supporting the bike but not lifting it, then go around check it is all stable , then take hold of handle bar grip again and slowly raise the bike checking its rock solid . I could not see a need to tye it down , unless you have to do some very man handling work to the bike that you will be pushing and pulling , like say rear wheel removal. and then take great care as the weight distribution will change dramatically when wheel comes off.

Better give me a couple weeks to respond. I kinda hurt my back lifting that sucker out of the car. LOL. I gotta assemble it then too.

Just be careful when you first do it. Some jacks to need the kit (or some wood) to clear the pipes and to keep everything level. Don't start "jacking" till you know it's stable and not pressing on anything you don't want pressed on - and even then be careful. And be just as careful when you lower it. Some jack releases are touching so they either release too fast or they're jerky. I usually keep one hand on the handlebar grip when bringing it down.

I don't know why they did it but your balance pipe for your exhaust on an 04-later bike sits lower than the frame rails by a few millimetres, so the lift will be raising the exhaust before your chassis.. Run a straight edge across the bottom chassis rails and you will see what I mean.

Oh yeah, forgot to add: I can lift the front of the frame with a bottle jack and remove both wheels at the same time and the bike is still stable without using tiedowns.
