Title: Looking at motorcycle jacks. Larin MAL-2C?
Post by: Chchadder on April 20, 2009, 09:45:20 PM
Anyone use this jack for their Duc?  http://www.motorcyclejacks.com/MAL-2.shtml (http://www.motorcyclejacks.com/MAL-2.shtml)

It's made for bikes that have frame rails at the bottom, but has an adapter with 4 moveable arms that supposedly make it universal. 

Any thoughts on this or other jacks would be appreciated.   [thumbsup]

No jack users out there?  I guess without a frame on the bottom of the bike, Duc users would be skeptical about picking up this jack.

I have the one from Sears.  I use it occasionally.  The rear and front Pitbull stands get used much more often, and my pivoting wheel chocks get used every day.

Which front wheel chock is that?  Me likey!  Basically I'm looking for something that will make it easier to get both front and rears off (guess I could just get a front stand to complement my rear) for when I PC them, as well as to get the bike up a bit to make it easier to work on.  That chock is nice for detailing and getting the bike up straight, though!   [thumbsup]

Yeah, it rocks (pun intended)!   ;D

It's a Baxley Sport chock (http://www.baxleycompanies.com/Sportchock.html).
