Works well on my Heritage. Paid less than $100.00 with tax for mine.

I have that jack and use it for basic maintenance, fluid changes, etc. it is easier to work on an upright bike. If you have ever taken the front fairing off of a road glide, you want the bike up and straight and everything working in your favor when it goes back on.

But I mainly use it for washing the bike, makes it easy to wash the tires and wheels.

I have used it to move the bike around in the garage, but very carefully and slowly. It is worth the price, picks up my road glide easily.

Is it the best, perhaps not. But the better Jack is not 500% better to justify the cost in my mind. YMMV
What did do to widen the pads ? As I am thing of getting one for my Fatboy.

i just got that jack. The weld on the handle snapped off while I was moving the jack around. Brought it back and they replaced it no problem. Works very well

What's 'HF'? High Forks? Holy Flatulism?

remove the two horizontal spleens from their arms. And screw them back to the opposite sides. Gonna need longer bolts to do this.

OP,
Thanks for the heads-up. I bought it yesterday to replace my tired old jack.
