Keeping front wheel straight on a jack
Picking brains here....what method(s) do you folks use to keep the front wheel straight while the bike is on a jack? I have a tool that I use on bicycles...maybe there is something for MC's that is similar?

You jack probably has loops on it for tie downs. Hook your tie downs to the forks and attatch them to the loops.

Ha ha! That's great!
On my pre-04 Sportsters I use a drop in piece with 2 pegs I made that goes where the fork lock tabs are on the tree.
