just started backfiring and stalling.

Stumbled across this scissor jack while browsing and thought I would share it with my Yahoo groups. For $70 it seems reasonable, and for that price you could get two of them. http://www.discountramps.com/motorcycle-lift-jack.htm?CA_6C15C=774981029 -- *Ian Francisco http://www.scarletfuries.com http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Scarlet-Furies/121218125931* [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Yes, but that's a pretty bad name from a marketing standpoint; I thought "Widowmaker" when I read it. Michael Sent from my iPad

And why, oh why... does there have to be some douche-y cruiser in all the pics? -Jeff Khoury

Another thing to check while your in there is the Plug Cap. Take it apart , cut a little of the main wire off , clean it , put it back together with Dielectric Grease. I had a but of what I thought was a carb problem a few years back, took it all apart and same thing when getting it back together. Plug Cap was the culprit. So may as well do that while your apart cleaning the carb.

Been using one of them old scissor jacks for years. But, use it just on my lift and it's about 1/2 the size of that one. Then I have the bike strapped down with the front in the chock. Nice to work on suspension where you can adjust the level of the bike. Hmmmmmm Let's see, Have used it on Harleys, Triumphs, Suzukis, Yamahas, Hondas, Vespa's, BMW's and even on my Kawasaki's. LOL!
