RE: Using a lift on a sofetail

ORIGINAL: anubisss
Never needed anything but my lift. Here is how I do it. I slide the lift under from the rght side (the side you fill the oil on). If it hits a point where it will not roll under the bike any further I grab the right handgrip AND THE BRAKE. I pull the bike off the jiffy stand but make sure to leave the stand down. Very Important to leave the stand down. While the bike is balanced off the stand I slide the rest of the jack under the bike and then start pumping it up with my foot. Works great for me. I can do it with one person every time. I have also found that if I let the jack compress completely when lowering the bike I usually don't need to pull the bike off the jiffy to get the jack underneath it. I have the harbor freight yellow jack. t is quite simple once you get used to it.

except since my bike is lowered so far down in the rear i roll it up on some wood to get the clearnace i need
