EZ-up here, been on the bike a couple years now. I would buy from them again. Negatives, with premium 12" shocks the "street Glide" version was lacking a bit of height, welded a 1/4" shoe to the bottom and that fixed my problem, I guess I would like to see the bottom adjustable. On the roads here in Michigan I get occasional "banging" from the lift, fixed that by gluing a piece of rubber where it contacts. Pluses, way easier maintenance and with a piece of wood under it cleaning wheels is a breeze. Thanks EZ-up for a great product! Mike

You can change your transmission fluid with it on. The fluid does not go all over the place, 15 Limited.

Yes, I like to ride in a sporting manner and it reduced my cornering clearance to a degree that I found unacceptable even with decent aftermarket shocks so now I just use it as a maintenance stand. Those who take it very easy or live in flat areas with lots of straight roads would probably be fine with it.

Thrilled with my ezup.

prime use in the garage where I have multiple bikes- straight up means more room to move around.

makes wash day easier

mine came from a forum member used.

good info on their website.
I do like the ride off and use that all the time, the bike goes up on the stand easy with pressure from my heel.

I had t grind a little off the feet to get a better traction for the ride off when on smooth/slick concrete. asphalt was no problem.

5 minute install

cornering clearance on the road has been fine- I do have to take the curbing at my driveway at a lesser angle to reduce scrapping.
no big deal

A big thumbs up from me and I am cheep- I don't cover my bike(s) with useless geegaws.

( I do buy a fair amount of stuff and try it- if useless to me I resell)

Mike

.. this is the ONLY limitation I've encountered with mine and I'm a hard rider ... Several trips on the Dragon, ( two up ) and all the other great rides and have never drug the stand ... Now the floorboards are a different story :>)

as in the post above $269 on sale at the wheeldock website.

used price is lesser if you can find one.

they have different versions depending on suspension height- this is important

They do not make a version for the SG that comes standard with the shorter shocks?
