Ya know somethin'?
The multiple threads about waving,oil,fingerless gloves,chaps,gay pirates,warrenties,RUBs,posers and tassels pale in comparison to these arguements of which color jack is better.

Ohh ohh, can I add another question to this thread? Can the yellow get under the cross member on the frame without needing to drive the bike up on blocks? Red jack can't do it. Without blocks, it is too far forward to evenly balance the bike on it and you couldn't get a pepsX stand in there

My E Glide is lowered both front and rear and the red one roll's right under mine, but I modified mine a little. You have the two main rails with the rubber pads and the four pieces of metal that hook to them that raise the rails with the pads.If you look there are two cross pieces that connect the two side together. When you let it all the way down you will see that one of the cross arms hit the jacks main rails (angle iron). I marked where they hit and took a 4" grinder and ground out the metal so the cross arms would drop down another 3/4".Now my jack roll's right under without any problem. If you guy's would want a pic of where I ground out the metal I can get my daughter to do it for me. With this mod it does not weaken the jack any. My bike sits up on it all winter without any issues.

I have to roll mine up on 12x12x1" landscapecement blocksfor the RED jack to slide underneath
I used to have to do this. Then I realized that the jack doesn't always collapse all the way down. Now all I do is put one foot on the lifting pad and the other on the release and it goes all the way down and I can roll it under my RK without the 1X4 under the front tire. You may want to take a look at this.

The red one works for me but it seems to be a dust collector lately due to all the riding in this harsh southern weather we have. It was a brutal 55 today and i almost had to wear gloves.

Red one works great for me on FLHT, at times when it will not roll right under, I check tire pressure and sure enough maybe a few pounds low. Air up tires and its good to go. A few pounds of air difference sure makes a difference on when using the jack.
