Spyder lift

[Gumbeau]

I recently took delivery of my 2014 spyder rt limited. It is a simply beautiful machine. I have not been on a motorcycle of any kind for over 30 years. I jumped on this puppy and road 63 miles on my first day. WOW! I almost cried when I got back home. Again, what a machine!

Now ow for a couple of questions: can any recommend a jack that I can use to lift the Spyder? I will probably do my own service (oil change, tire changes etc). I also want to install a skid plate and front shocks (maybe). Any assistance would be appreciated.

If if I can figure how to post pics, I will share some of my "Big Dawg"

Again, I love this machine :yes::yes::yes:

Welcome..!! Welcome..!!

to the spyder world and this most entertaining and educating site. Congrats on your new ryde..!! :2thumbs: as to lifts it will depend on how far you want to go. A floor jack and jackstands will work nicely. I use an ATV/motorcycle stand (harbor freight has many) from Sear's. Then there is a big blue lift and roll on types. Shop around..enjoy the ryde...:thumbup:

:congrats: Have a look in the DIY section. Some people have modified lift tables to work with a Spyder .

I use a set of old car ramps on the front and a floor jack under the shock on the swing arm, gives plenty of room.

Thanks, sounds like a plan.
