I've been using a standard lift from Costco for cleaning my heritage but my Legend air suspension has a Vee shaped protective plate preventing my frame from contacting the lift at four points. It's a little unstable and using tie down straps don't seem to offer the security from the bike pivoting forward during front wheel cleaning. I'm also rolling the rig up on blocks to get the clearance needed to get the lift under. Its a hassle.
Looking through a Thunderpress rag I saw two center stands : www.jpslaststand.com & www.cyclelifts.com advertised. The contact bar rolls against the frame as it pivots the bike up. A breaker bar set up is used to manually lift the rear wheel up.
I'm wondering if anyone out here has used one. My concern is the distance the rolling bar travels along the bottom of the frame. Once again I dont want it hitting the shock cover.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rich
