Meet at the Tim Hortons on Rest Acres Road. Could "do" ice cream following coffee. Other possible dates depending on weather and who is available - Thursday Sept 12 or Friday the 13th....same time, same place. Comments? Thoughts? Interested?

I run my Dunlop E3's at the above pressures and adjust the rear shock pressure based on riding solo or with my wife. With 2-up I increase the shock pressure. I go a little more than 10% of the weight. If pulling a trailer I take the weight on the hitch into consideration doing the calculation.

Great details ! Thank you for sharing.

Looks good. Just wondering.... the plates at the bottom of the legs don't look very long/wide. Have you considered going bigger on those? How tall are the legs? Some jacks don't go as high as others. Might be something for people to consider if they order it from you. You should put it in the "for sale" area if you already haven't for those interested....if you plan on making/selling them. Also...how wide is the adapter? The jack I had originally had pads that barely fit across the adapter that Larry made. I went with a jack with much longer pads so I have about 2" extending beyond the adapter (makes less me less nervous when lifting the bike !)

I strongly suggest contacting Larry first to support his "invention". If you message Larry ( @Carbon_One - not sure if this is current email address lskeels@wowway) he may still be able to provide the plans. @Freebird can you restore the picture mentioned in the post?

I believe using the lift adapter is still the safest way to do it though.

The adapter that Larry used to make is the best option. I have one with legs and use it to store my bike over the winter and when doing maintenance. Prior to the availability of the lift adapter some people used hockey pucks in the right locations on their bike lift. If you are good with welding....it is possible to make your own. I recall that there was a post years ago with the dimensions and plans. I'm in Kitchener.

We have to be in Niagara Falls later in the afternoon but can come in the morning. We will be on four wheels though.

Welcome aboard ! Several Canadians on the sight. I'm in Kitchener Ontario.

If you are looking for passing light visors....I got these years ago from Harley. They don't have the HD symbol on them. https://www.harley-davidson.com/ca/en/shop/passing-lamp-visors/p/67783-78T
