This is another option that I like and have owned one for about 6 years. Of course you need a jack to get it up off the floor but once on the stand it's rock steady. I use it also in the driveway when it's bath time and of course getting to everything is easy to get to.

audioguy - 2010-02-18 12:59 PM I mentioned the fact that I had a Vision to them, but I was emailing back and forth with an admin, not the shop guys. Do you have a picture of the shim you're using? Thanks, --jim

 

The shim is a piece of rubberized compound measuring 2" X 4" and is placed or attached on the rear jack arm at the outside edge.  Here are a couple of shots of it and the area that needs the shim vs. the bracket.  The last one was taken with temporary cardboard in place before the shim arrived.  It keeps the bike even across the jack arm.

Thanks! I appreciate the pictures.
Assuming they don't send anything, I'll find a piece of heavy rubber or something and make one up.

Trekwolf164, I am at least one of the people using the tip overs to check/inflate my tires, and clean the rims, and bottom of the engine, etc. Works very well, and really quite easy. Kinda freaks out the neighbors, tho. They always want to help me 'right the bike'. -----Metalguy

You going to have that bike with the clean wheels over here this spring? I chickened out on the early winter rides, but have put on 300 miles or so late winter. Picking her up after the 500 mile service and an S1L1 exhaust install at the dealer tomorrow. (Kennewick)

The buddy I sold the Tour Deluxe to would be six shades of green if he went on a ride with TWO Visions.... ;-)
