I use a ATV lift. Been doing it for 7 years now and have no issues on damaging the sump cover (oil pan). The sump cover is made of thick aluminum not thin stamped metal. I have a extra sump cover in the shop and you could split wood on top of it..lol

There a member on here that knows a lot about these bikes and he uses a ATV lift. I think he would know what is best and what not.

I like the fact that these ATV lifts aren't that expensive. Also I use mine for different applications in my shop rather than just my bike. Works well on lifting transmissions, atvs, riding lawn mowers, etc....

Also I have jacked the bike up and took both tires off to get them changed out.

Lift like this one:

Pro-Lift 1500 lbs. Utility Lift-T-2152 - The Home Depot

Thanks for the help.
 
Is there anything special about jacking up a roadster since the bike jack is right against the motor instead of the frame. Jacked my VTX 1800 up all the time, but it was against the frame. Just a new guy here with a dumb question, I want to store it up off the tires for winter. This is a whole new Beast. I have had the bike for 3 days, 2015 Roadster with 1500 miles. Thanks for any help.
I use an Anderson Stand and stand by the quality , ease of use and safety

Triumph Rocket III Stand
