    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

How about this company? Their prices seem too good.

For my knees, hips and back- this seems like a winner of an idea.
 
The lift tables are the best but impractical for many of us with limited space. The jack is the next best thing.

I always thought they were kind of gimicky and put off gtting one for years. Now I'm lost without it. It does make working on the bike easier and is very useful for moving the bike around in the man cave.

I'd recommend one.

Cheers,

I am working on my first bike and borrowed a jack from my cousin. It has a locking mechanism that prevents the hydraulics from giving out over time so that made me feel more comfortable. It is also very very sturdy, I can lean up against it and loosen tightly torqued bolts without it budging. I am very careful though in to not push the limits. It is also great because its in my small garage that has shelves and tool boxes all around and I still have easy access around it. I'm using some cheap one that my cousin got for free, looks about 5-10 years old
 
Put big eye bolts in the wall on each side of the garage and run straps to keep it from tipping. Thats was the first time in maybe 25 years that i have ever lost a bike and the last..the jack wnet in the dumpstr the next day.
