Regarding the jack issue, I did have to upgrade to a J&S jack. It's wide enough to put one rail under the folded legs of the stand and the rail toward the front gets a 3/4" piece of wood on it. Works like a charm and I love thw jack too.

The only thing I do not like is now I cannot use my jack to lift the bike, the mounting bolt hits one of the runners on the jack. Anyone else have this problem?
Yes I know what you mean, I slip a small piece of wood about the same thickness as the bolt opposite of the bolt and it balances it out, never had a problem.

Do you have a picture of this? Just trying to picture in my mind how the J&S jack avoids the ez lift.

Have one on my 10 UC. It was one of my first upgrades. The stand is solid, works great and makes it easier to work on the bike. It does everything it is advertised to do and is simple to install.

Default center stand

my 07 police electraglide had a stock harley center stand on it when i bought it.
for the life of me, i could NOT figure out how anyone ever got the bike up on it. baggers want to fall over by nature, and me trying to lift this chunk of iron onto the centerstand only contributed more.

i remember my first honda superhawk had a center stand and it was easy to put it up on it since it weighed next to nothing.

i've got it sitting on a shelf in my garage if anybody wants a centerstand.
