Macho-Man Jack

I purchased my Macho-Man Jack because using my SuperJackII jack made it difficult for changing oil, or doing certain types of tasks on my Vstar 1100. The Macho-Man jack is very well built and has a great chrome finish. I got the optional vulcanized wheels on my jack. (thanks Ed !)

At first it was a little awkward to use, but I got the hang of it after a couple of lifts. I coulda made one out of wood, the DIY lift, but I wanted something that was more sturdy and would last forever. This jack fits the bill perfectly, and the price is comparable to ones that don't have wheels and aren't even chrome... :-) I highly recommend this jack, as a secondary, or even a primary lift for your pride and joy!

Ed at Macho-Man Jack is great to work with and shipping to me was FAST!

Here's my SuperJackII, this thing was expensive, but well worth the price. It's made of heavy guage steel and has a great powder coated finish. There is no comparison with this jack and one that you can purchase a Sears, Costco, or the Auto parts store. Sure the others work, but with this one, I never have to worry about failure, like shearing of pivot point pins/bolts. This jack is my primary jack, but doing oil changes are a pain.

Here's the Macho-Man Jack next to the bike lifted with the Super Jack II. Because of where the lift points are with the SuperJackII, it's very had to get the oil pan under the bike to catch the oil when doing oil changes.

Here's a shot of the Macho-Man Jack lifted in the middle of the bike.

Here's a good shot of the Macho-Man Jack under Reaper Jr.

As you can see there's plenty of room for the oil pan now.. :-)
