    motorcycle jacks really only work on non-sportbikes, or bikes that don't have the exhaust running under the engine.

    Makes sense. I was wondering about that. I haven't picked up the ninja 300 yet. Should be doing it this saturday.

    I posted 3 motorcycle stands off of browsing ebay for less than a minute. I'd like a better stand. I'd prefer not to get a harbor freight or equivalent.

              I used an ogio drive in stand. It basically 180'd under the bike as you rolled it forward. Pretty slick. Also. Look into a condor wheel chalk. Super slick. And can be mounted anywhere and removed with a few pins. But then I again, I had a Supermoto, so you we used to load them into full size pickups with a few guys lifting them. Or just wheelie them onto trailers that didn't have ramps.

                    so my younger brother picked up his bike. He went with a 1989 FJ1200 as his first bike.

                    The seller i was going to meet flaked on me and sold the bike to someone else even though I had a check from my bank in her name and we had agreed on meeting and buying. So now I am looking again.

                                      Those aren't bikes I am looking at. Those are bikes that can connect to a side stand.

                                        I understand, but the cool things about lists, is that they can be for other things.  For example, the other day I wrote the ingrediants I needed for a recipe into a list.  I made the declaration that the list was for my recipe, but then I also used it as my shopping list.  See, same list, 2 uses.

                                          Well now I am in a dilema. Apparently because of insurance reasons...you can not test ANY sport bike at ANY dealership. So I can not test ride the 2 bikes I am looking at. Which are the ninja 300 and the honda cbr500. I would like to test ride them and see which one I want.
