craftsemen profesional jack or the regular craftsmen??
looking at buying a craftsman jack wasnt sure if any of you have one of these and your inputs or got something in the same price range your happy with. thanks
I have the RED one but it doesn't slide under my bike without me driving it up on (2) 12x12x1 cement blocks because I lowered the rear with SG shocks. I'd get the Yellow one if I had it to do over again. Matter of fact I'm seriously contemplating on getting the Yellow one anyway and tossing the RED one in the corner.
I have had the red one for about 8 years. It works well on the lowered RKC. It is a little struggle getting it under the lowered Deuce, but if you level the bike and push it under it works. I have the bike strapped on it for the first time this Winter. The hydraulics bleed down, so you have to make sure to flip the safety catch. The RKC has been on it for about two months now, without issue. It is stable and sturdy. I wheel it from the front of the garage with the bike on it to work on it on weekends.
i just got the red one and its fine...just use the lock and release the pressure. gotta hold the scoot level to slide it under but thats minor. i also use the screw supports(?) to lock it down and get the weight of the bike off the swivel casters, also stabilizes the bike further
I've had both, the red jack is solid as a rock the yellow jack is a wobbily piece of junk.
If your RK isn't lower either one should go under it, at least they did on mine
The red jack is a little taller than the yellow jack.
I've got the red craftsman and has served me well for years. No issues with it at all.
+1 I sometimes have to wiggle it to get it under the frame but I have had the bike on it for a few months at a time with no issues. Just make sure the locking bar is in place.
I'm sure Pitbulls and others are much better but I would rather spend my money on other things.
